The Living Nativity is one of the loveliest celebrations in Bagni di Lucca. This year the Presepe Vivente is being held in on December 1st in Pieve di Monte di Villa.
Don’t miss this one!
Christmas delights
There is a Christmas decoration heaven in Fornaci di Barga right now.
Come inside and take a look.
To find Christmaslandia take the road to the right after Brico, drive about 100 metres and look to the right.
Puccini’s women
At 6.30pm on 29th November in the Sala Rosa at Circolo dei Forestieri will be the inauguration of an art exhibition of 50 art works relating to the women in Puccini’s life, his personal life and the characters in his operas. The paintings and sculpture are by local, national and international and student artists.
A dinner will follow at 8.00pm at the Circolo dei Forestieri. There will be a pianist, a violinist and a soprano performing Puccini’s music.
The event has been organised by the Borgo degli Artisti.
Commemoration for the fallen
On Monday 4th November there will be a Commemoration for the deaths in all wars. Everyone is invited to attend.
Lunch in Casoli
Lucky Casoli has its own restaurant. We visited on an autumn Sunday.
It was quite warm outside but the fire was on inside, making a lovely welcome.
The room is charmingly decorated.
We chose pasta fritta as a shared antipasti.
A delicious, large serve of lasagna followed.
…and porchetta with a side of potato chips.
In warmer months there are tables available outside, offering views over the mountains.
A short walk after lunch showed us a little of the entrance to Casoli.
Below is a previous post I wrote about Casoli

Market in the piazza
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.
