There is a new enoteca opening in Fornoli. It is great to see new businesses opening in Bagni di Lucca.
I highly recommend the guided walks around Bagni di Lucca. You will definitely discover treasures.
The crossbow competition is fun to watch. It will begin around 9.30 I believe. it would be a good idea to put more information on the posters.
Ponte a Serraglio has an excellent pre-loved clothing shop. It is part of the Auser group. It is on the road between the Piazza in Ponte a Serraglio and La Villa.
There is a wonderful selection of clothing and accessories…a great addition to Ponte a Serraglio.
The sun shone on the Soffitte in Strada today in La Villa. We need rain, but the dark clouds that come and go, can come back tonight.
I visited at lunch time, so there were not many people wandering in the street, but it is good to see the markets happening.
I hope you got a bargain.
It is great to see new business in Bagni di Lucca. The Bernabo baths in Ponte a Serraglio have been renovated and are now open to the public.
The first building was constructed in 1593 and the marble baths date from this time. The new company has done a great job renewing the interior and the beautiful old baths.
They offer an extensive range of treatments as well as thermal baths and stream grotto.
The terrace in front of the baths offers one of the best views in the area.
The baths are open Monday to Sunday from 8.30am until 7.00pm.

The wonderful Verdemura is happening on the Lucca wall this weekend. It started yesterday and continues today until 7.30pm and tomorrow from 9.00am until 7.30pm.
We went yesterday to find the usual excellent selection of plants, garden accessories, hand made items and food.
Tickets are on sale at the entrance and online…verdemura.it
Tickets are €10 or €8 for over 65s or children from 8 – 14.
Online tickets are €8 + €1 booking fee.
I hope the rain doesn’t ruin the event. We haven’t had rain for months, making it difficult for nurseries to get their plants growing and now it rains on their opportunity to sell them.
We found everything we were looking for…and much more.
After a month of sunny days we have rain. This is beautiful too and we need rain to help the soon to arrive spring growth.
It is also Valentine’s day with all the expected flowers and red hearts. Bar Italia is full of good things.
Happy Valentine’s Day in the rain.
The street market in La Villa was a much smaller event than usual. Instead of being held in the main street it was in the little market square, watched over by the two gentlemen on the monument.
There were treasures rescued from attics, clothing and hand made items on offer.
It is good to see things beginning to happen even if on a smaller scale.
Don’t miss the antique and hand made market in La Villa this Sunday.
On a cold and frosty afternoon Ponte a Serraglio was full of Christmas fun and frivolity.
Santa was there in a couple of forms.
Who doesn’t love a Christmas alpaca?
Fun for children.
Things to eat.
Happy faces.
Merry Christmas from Ponte a Serraglio. Thank you to the traders in Ponte a Serraglio for organising the Chrismas party.
There are some fun events coming up in Bagni di Lucca in the next few weeks.
Other things in the area.
