Porec, Istria

We went with Kathy's sister, Karen and her husband on a tour of the Istrian peninsula and even ended up taking them to dinner in Italy.
Along the way we visited Porec, which is another one of those wonderful old Roman towns in Istria. The Basilica of Euphrasius (6th century) had some beautiful examples of gold tile along with some columns with each having a different cap. Even our 5 year old, Audrey knows the difference between Doric, Ionic and Corinthian columns!

Even the arches had differing designs.I think I will add this photo to my Shades collection on the right. I like how the window arches add counterpoint to the main arches.

An ancient baptismal font.
