The shopping in Ponza

The Admiral loves the these FitFlop shoes she bought in Ponza, the old Roman island of Pontia.  It is said the Greeks may have had a colony, long before the Etruscans and then the Romans arrived; it is said this is Circe's island, where Ulysses spent a year drinking and feasting.  The owners of the shoe store said Caroline Grimaldi, of Monaco, is an annual visitor and customer of theirs.  

Ponza is a low-key place we liked, a place where myth can be difficult to discern from reality.  A place where one might very well spend a carefree year.
