FAVA CASTLE ACTIVATION DCI NU-002
Ready to fo for a little activation with my son ...
I choose the Castle of the Fava Beans,
not so far away from my Holiday House ! I did a little inspectio
nbefore to go, and after I got the "green light" from the custodian of
the Historical site I was ready to go !
To climb on the Castel ther is a narrow and hard rockway, not difficult if you are just walking, but hanging with you several kg's of radio will be a bit different ...
The curious name of the Castel has origin by a nice legend ...
In 1300 a Turkish fleet landed on the island coasts and laid siege to their Posada in order to conquer hunger . In an attempt to deceive the people of the besiegers Posada did eat the last handful of beans remained at a pigeon , wounding him slightly ; this during the flight fell into the camp of the Turks , revealing a stomach full of beans and causing the attackers to overestimate the food resources of the islanders . So it was that the Turks are convinced that they have no hope , they removed the siege and left the island's shores
The activations gave me the possibility to understand that there is still a lot of interess in the Award for Italian Castle !the D.C.I. the Award for Italian Castle !
