Our trip to Ferentino

As part of my parents visit, we planned a trip to Ferentino, the town where my great grandparents on the Cellitti side were born. We stayed in nearby Frosinone. Like many Italian cities, Frosinone and Ferentino sit atop hills. The views are incredible! Here we are on the balcony of my parents hotel room in Frosinone.


While my parents have been to Ferentino a few times in the past, this was my first trip. We saw two lovely churches, met people who knew our ancestors and had ice cream on the piazza.

We found a great park in Frosinone where the kids ran off some of their energy after a morning of touring Ferentino.


On the last day of my parents visit we had dinner at our hotel. There was a festival going on in the town, and our hotel sat so high up on the hill that we saw fireworks going off all over the city while we ate. It was a lovely way to end their visit.
