Cortona

We are now in Cortona, two weeks before the "Tuscan Sun Festival" begins. Apparently in two weeks' time, Sting and Trudie Styler, Charles Dance and many more actors, musicians and artists will be arriving for the festival. Even Frances Mayes will be attending the launch of her latest book. But at the moment, the Piazza della Republica is relatively quiet:

Last night, the Piazza Signorelli was busy with quite a few people dancing to a band:

The public gardens:

What a view:


The food is wonderful - veal with mushrooms, vitello tonnato:



Tagliatelle with mushrooms, Pappardelle with wild boar:


 

And crostini spread with tomato, liver and mushroom:
