The Isle of Corsica (June 2)

Beth and I left the boys for some time and toured the beautiful town of Ajaccio on the Island of Corsica.  Corsica is a French Island having be sold to France is 1768 by the state of Genoa.  Today, Corsica is best know at the birthplace of Napoleon Bonaparte, who was born in Ajaccio in 1769.  Corsica is the fourth largest island in the Mediterranean and lies just seven miles north of it’s Italian neighbor island, Sardinia (which we visited three years ago).  The visit was lovely and the weather and coastline spectacular.
