A rainy day in Lucca on the 4th. We went shopping for groceries in spite of it and just hung around our new place all day.
Woke up on the 5th and immediately turned on the TV to see who our new president was...we were elated with the news and the landslide victory. We can tell you from our discussions with the Italians and without giving our own opinion, they, and the world are elated to have a smart, worldly, balanced president...everyone seems to have new hope. All of Italian TV for the next 24 hours was discussing the new president.
The rains decided to take a break today, so we decided to walk to Parco Fluviale just north of town. It is a path along the Serchio River which comes from the Apuane di Alpe in the Garfanga north of us. It was swollen from the rains and we satisfied our curiosity. In the afternoon, Mauny managed to go for a run on the city wall with other runners, strollers, and cyclists. The wall is definitely a place where seemingly the entire town uses almost on a daily basis. We truly love it here.
