26 May

Went straight to the Siena and the Museo Civico in Il Campo and browsed the frescoes and memorabilia from 1600’s on.  We were amazed, particularly by the paintings of liberation by Emmanuel Vittorio on the ceilings in the more modern section.  Very apparent how much influence the church had on all things that these days would be decided by the local council.  Explored the streets we hadn’t yet ventured down.  You could walk any street and be intrigued by the architecture.   Managed to get a wi-fi connection for a short time in the Irish Pub but then my phone started playing up.  On Eric’s connection we booked a hotel for 2 nights in Lucca.  Now we have to explain to La Grotta that we are leaving 2 days early, with Tony still not back that may take some charades!  Ah, not so bad, Tony returns tomorrow!
