Hello everyone,
We had such fun today!!  The square had it's first ever market day or flea market.  It was filled with cheeses which by the way Percino was our favorite and the fresh sliced procuitto was unbelievable.  We just walked around all day.  The first part of the day we did two loads of wash and dry which cost $18 us dollars.  Then we had wine free and paid and had a great time.  We then came back to our room in the afternoon and played cards on the terrace and drank the last of our beer.  People were gathering under our terrace to take pictures and we had the terrace all to ourselves.  This place has been so friendly and wonderful.  Coletta and her sister E'letta have been such help.  I think I spelled the names wrong and will check when I get home.  We went back to the square to have another gigantic slice of pizza and geleta, i.e. ice cream.  We are back at the room and packed for our final place to see tomorrow as we head by train to Cinque Terre.  We are staying on Manarola and think it will be an easy train ride and a wonderful view.  We will attach pics tonight and then sometime tomorrow attach some video to show you the parade in the square with people on stilts.
Hugs and Kisses

I am so glad you are having fun. I love all the pictures. Take some of the beautiful people with tight jeans. Had a glass of wine today at noon for the toast. I will also have one on Tues. when I get home from work to toast your birthday. Still love and miss you.

I agree with Petey, more cute men in tight jeans would be nice. Pictures are just wonderful. Don't wash anymore clothes. Water must be at a premium there. I drank a glass of wine the other nite too to celebrate your birthday. Have a great day on Tuesday. Thinking of you both.
