Scents and Mystique

No other city is more unique than Napoli; around corners, you'll find surprises that intrigue eyes staring at monuments that have some mystique powers! And walking through the very narrow and noisy streets of various sounds: you'll feel a drop of casual water from the clotheslines above...ah, those scented sheets waving while people eat treats and breathe the spring air and listen to musicians improvising chords on their guitar! Come to the city where the scent of oven-baked pizza lures: live the simple life of the Neapolitans... folks who sing classical songs that make everyone glad; even Venice cannot compare to the enthusiasm and thrills of the locals while flowers are offered by generous hands!

I can imagine the wonderful aroma that would be floating on the air when pizza would be baking in open ovens. That would be inviting. Thank you for participating in my contest. I was delighted to place it on the winners' list. Sara
