Fantastic! We also live in a medieval city here in Italy, called Bologna. Is incredible how the Italian are proud of their cities and their culture... For sure, is a beautiful way to live! Thank you Rick!

I was there a few years ago and the town was deserted! It was really weird. No place to eat inside the walls. It was the middle of summer too. Architecturally beautiful, but a little eerie walking through the empty town
