I didn't know we had a Pirates' House in Livorno.
No lions today, but a double elephant at the Sunday market.
The top part of a towering street light in “Piazza della Vittoria”.
“Parco Centro Città”, a sudden flight of pigeons.
We have some Sardinian independentists in Livorno: Fintzas a s'indipendentzia! Amus a gherrare (We are going to fight until the independence!).

VP your walks are great. Wonderful images. Love the Pirate house.
Cool pirate photo. and two interesting bikes.
Someone told me when buying elephant images always to chose those with the trunk unlifted since it's a sign of good luck. Your elephants are perfect models.
I've been kept hostage by Blogger for several days which was frustrating, but I'm back now enjoying all the posts.
another fine walk. thank you again for showing us what you observe as you move through your day.
I do like your walks. I wonder what would possess someone to have a pirate death head painting on a house...the elephants are beautiful; probably made of elephant ivory?
Love the bikes, too, but I wouldn't be caught dead riding either one of them.
You found some really cute stuff on today's walk! Love that bike. And the pirate house is neat too!
Even the pirate couldn't scare away the graffiti writers. Too bad. I like the ornate lamp post. Thanks for giving the links to earlier walks. Nice post.
That's very unique to have a pirate on your house, and that is one fancy bike!
From the whimsical to the dead serious on this walk.
So, the "skull and cross BONES" has been transformed into skull and daggers?
I suppose one should be happy as long as the independence fight only takes place on the walls. Still, vandalism is a disgrace.
You always get the best in your walkings, I'm enchanted by those pigeons, what a fabulous shot! :)

I love your walks VP - I'm always impressed with your ability to find those amazing things!
Oh NO! Pirates have taken over Livorno!
I always enjoy your walks.
I want those elephants!
My attention was especially caught by the second pic. Everything looks so kitsch there! :-) Have you noticed the blue heart in the background? And I wonder what made the author of the elephants imagine a scene that simply never happens in nature! :-)))
What great finds during your walk! That photo which caught the flight of the pidgeons is amazing!
Keep walking, VP!:) You always find interesting things to show us. Thanks!
MARVELLOUS BIKE I WOULD LIKE THE SAME :)
What wonderful treasures you find on your walks. I love the bike---very kooky!!! I don't care what Jacob says--I'd ride the bike. LOL MB
