Guiseppe's friends at the Parco Regionale Maturanum
- I walked around the Babarano Romano old town ..the museum was shut of course. Then I went off to visit Guiseppe's friends at the Parco Regionale Maturanum office where he used to work. Sandra ? spoke excellent English as she used work in the American national park. She & everyone else in the office was very helpful & I left with heaps of good info.
