Visit Anghiari in the early evening
when the shutters are thrown back
small shops open for last minute purchases
children are let out to play
watched by indulgent grandparents
shopkeepers sit outside in the cool
and you can relax in a café
and enjoy drinks in every colour of the rainbow.
with thanks to Monica
who recommended that we visit Anghiari.
Isn't it great to have friends
from every corner of the world
who can tell you about the best places to visit.

I'd be more than happy to sit on a bench there and watch the children play.
