You know you live in Italy when you get art and Verdi - no ticket needed - at the railway station.
At 10am we began another "estemporanea di pittura":I have to admit to being awol a couple of times. Despite a drop of temperature of about 5 degrees it was still well over 30° in the piazza and simply too hot for me!
My contribution to the event is top left:
This artist was a delight, and her darling little son lasted the whole day, declaring, at 11pm as he snuggled into his mum's shoulder, that he was not tired after his 12 hour day!
*****
There really were two trains during the evening...
Imagine coming off the platform and having to negotiate this crowd with your suitcase in tow!
Of course there is always a tenor for my sogni...
and this time he sang with home town favourite, the internationally acclaimed Tania di Giorgio who can be seen here singing Ave Maria in a local church.
Always a star and absolutely charming as well, her solos and duets were outstanding and the somewhat spartan and drab surroundings took nothing away from the quality of her performance.
Today I am grateful for Ibuprofen.
