The newly opened piazza in Bagni di Lucca Villa has been put to good use today for the flea market. It was a beautiful autumn day, perfect to enjoy a browse and perhaps find a treasure to buy.








The inauguration of the first art exhibition at the newly regrouped Borgo degli Artisti was well attended. People spilled out onto the bridge on Sunday afternoon to see the work of local artists. It was great to see many familiar faces along with new people.




People were clearly enjoying themselves inside the gallery.




I wish I had been there to see the art up close.








Thank you to AnnBeth and Rita Gualtiera for the photos.
