Gothic-Catalan bell tower of Cattedrale Santa Maria |
This little early bird climbed stairs to the terrace top of Torre de San Giovanni in honor of my muse who loves tall buildings. Huffing and puffing, I was grateful it was a short tall building.
On the way up I caught my breath at the large model of Alghero circa 1865, and remembered how my three little sons had loved the model of the Alamo way more than the actual Alamo.
Persevering, I gracelessly ascended the uneven stone stairway with no handrail to emerge into the sunshine.

Fort Magdelena with port in background |

Bell towers of San Francesco and Santa Maria |

One of several towers |

Via Sassari and the park |

Looking toward Lido beach |
And closer, old city streets and rooftop spots:
No, it wasn't nap time when I got back to ground level.
