Saluti da Siena



     After lunch in San Gimignano, we headed to Siena, a city I fell in love with when I visited it two years ago. Walking toward the center of the city, you pass this overlook.
      In the center is the Piazza del Campo where a horse race called the Palio is held twice during the summer.






     It's easy to tell which neighborhood had won the most recent race.


     Wander down the narrow side streets and you will discover many photo opportunities.













     Oh, and did I mention they have wonderful gelato? :-)
