A View with Snow
[Photos by Stefano B]
My friend Stefano took these picture in “Villa Letizia” the day last Wednesday. The first one is an almost black and white composition from the park of the villa.
A view toward south from the roof of the villa: we can see the coastline as far as Antignano.
The snow covers the marina of Ardenza and the sea resorts.
The “Federico Caprilli” racetrack white with snow and in background the Naval Academy.See also: Villa Letizia - From the Roof - Federico Caprilli

Giorni della merla
An Italian legend says that the last three days of January are the coldest of the year and are called the “giorni della merla” (literally: days of the hen blackbird). Different versions of the story say that the “merla” was a bird, a cannon or even a noblewoman. Sometimes the days are stretched until the first of February, but if this period is very cold, spring will come soon and it will be warm.
“Scali delle Cantine” seen from “Piazza della Repubblica”.
The monument to Garibaldi, in his namesake square, is surrounde by the snow.
The “Capitana” bastion of the “Fortezza Vecchia”.
Monument to Leopold II of Tuscany and church of “San Benedetto” in “Piazza XX Settembre”.

Two Years
Today we celebrate our second anniversary. On this occasion we'd like to thank all our followers and readers for their support.
Here is our first walk after the snow. It was almost sad seeing this snowsomething melting away.
What we have known as the “Green Gas Station” is on the verge of being dismantled.
A crystal Santa staring at the camera from a shop in “Via Marradi”.
This is probably a wordplay joining “Deh”, our typical insert in a conversation, and “Gusto” (Taste) to make “DehGusto” (I degust).
Something colorful for the Holidays, in the usual “Via Ricasoli”.

Snowfall
At last, most of Tuscany and even Livorno got some snow. Here is our “Fortezza Vecchia” dusted with white.
Palm trees on the “Pamiglione” (Old Harbor).
The southbound lane of the “Santa Trinita” bridge is blocked.
The “Scali degli Isolotti” and the bell tower of “San Ferdinando”.
