Description

After 2 weeks in Tuscany we moved to the Northern part of Italy, more specific the Dolomites (Dolomiti in Italian). Because I'm a huge lover of mountains this kind of felt like 'coming home'. In this part of the Dolomites 3 different languages are spoken: Italian, German and Ladini. As a former part of Austria (after WW1 handed over to Italy), where German is the official language, you can imagine why people are still talking German. Ladini is a Ret Romanesque language which evolved after Romanization of the area from the commonly used Latin and the regional language. It is a pleasant sounding but for the non-Ladinian hardly understandable language, rich in unique sounds and sound combinations. Above picture is taken on the road to Sella Pass (passo di Sella). It shows the view in the direction of the Odle/Geisler-peaks (from left to center). Hope you like this one. Have a wonderful weekend! Paul
