The blue tent

Veronetta district, tuesday morning.

Arena upside down

This street performer enchanted the crowd. He carelessly handled the glass globe and with amazingly fluid movements made it slide on his hands, arms, shoulders. He performed with incredible ability and a catching smile on his face.

Don't forget to look up!

Walking down the street my attention is naturally focused on what's in front, around and even under my feet (I never fail to notice the sampietrini or the marbles...). But whenever I look up, what I see never fails to impress me. I inevitably think I must remember to look up more often and I even feel annoyed because I keep forgetting it and I realize that I regularly miss so many interesting details, especially in the historical centre.

So I decided I will start a "Don't forget to look up" series. What do you think?

Public scale

You can check your weight on the street on one of the public scales scattered in town. Public but not free: you will need a 50 cents coin. I don't think I'll ever use it...
