Pasqua


Long time no write!  I have been busy editing an English book, preparing for my course, tutoring, and enjoying the wonders of this country.  We had a lovely Easter break.  Unfortunately I do not have time to give you details but we spent it in the Tuscan countryside of Livorno, Bolgheri, Castagneto, and Casale Marittimmo.  Enough said, enjoy the pictures!  :)

Blessing of the palms (they use olive branches because they are more common here)

Procession around the church plaza

Visiting a villa in Livorno

The ancient town of Bolgheri, where Giosuè Carducci wrote his poem about the cyprus trees lining the street, leading to the church of San Guido.
