Yesterday we got an early start and drove to Alberobello. It is a fairytale like village of Trulli. Unfortunately, it has become very tourist driven with lots shops peddling the same souvenirs. We are still glad we visited and we were thankful to have arrived by 9:00 AM when the streets were quiet and charming. Even though the village has become commercialized, it is still worth a visit. We did download an audio guide through Gulliverway before arriving. It was quite informative and we were glad to have not paid for an expensive guide.
Then it was off to an educational experience on the nuances quality olive oil. We now know how to determine if an olive oil is rancid and how to read labels to find high quality oil with strong Phenols.
