I wish I was in Bagni di Lucca right now to see the excellent umbrella installation in the main street of La Villa.
I have gathered some great photos taken by those who are there to share the colourful display. Thank you Liz and Alan, Sheila and Marco Pistolozzi. (If I missed anyone, please let me know)
Top marks to those who organised the event.
The mayor was on hand to initiate the celebrations.
Bella Bagni di Lucca 
They really are quite beautiful. And they give a lovely, dappled kind of shade as you walk up the street.
It looks very pretty. I wonder how long they will be there.
Glad to help – great post – sad my visit is coming to an end
Thank you. Time goes quickly when you are having fun.
Amazing😄
I have seen this done in other places. It certainly looks great in Bagni di Lucca.
Isn’t that fun.
Simple but effective.
A great initiative. Congratulations to all those who cooperated to materialize this beautiful event.
Yes, well done to the team.
My garden needs rain badly. Hope they help!
Doesn’t it rain when you forget your umbrella?
Debra thanks for the stunning pictures…..what a vibrant community spirit Bagni di Lucca has! Wish I was there .
There is always something going on in Bagni di Lucca.
They are beautiful. We had them in Bath UK, but I missed them there. Does anyone know how long they will be in La Villa?? We are visiting late September, I guess they will be gone by then.
Thank you Debra for all of your posts they are always good to read. Hope to meet you in September.
What a wonderful site….wish I was there to see it. Well done Bagni di Lucca.
Dear Debra, where are you? I have just heard the earthquake in Italy, I am so sad, it is tragic and fearful. I hope and wish you are fine. God be with you all, I pray. Love, nia
Hello Nia, I am in Australia now. I return to Italy next month. Thank you for your concern. I feel for these poor people caught in a horrible situation.
I am so glad to hear you dear Debra, Love, nia
A colorful sight … and cheers to your near return.
