Frecce Tricolori

We had the wonderful opportunity to see the Frecce Tricolori last summer from the beach in Castagneto Carducci (Li) during the Bolgheri Melody event. It was a spetaculous event seeing the talented pilots and amazing airplanes. 

 

What made it even more amazing was the fact that we saw the whole 3 hour event from our sun-chairs less then 2 meters from the sea!

The grand finale flying over our

Festa del Olio in the beautiful city of Volterra!

From the 4th until the 8th of December Volterra will have their annual "Primo Olio". The festival, in its third year, promotes the tasty green gold through competitions, tastings and stands for the curious and passionate audience. The need this year to raise awareness and promote this great product...and its centuries-old tradition rooted in the territory, giving it a leading role alongside the other excellent local food and wine. A wonderful occasion to taste the freshly made new oil from local producers!

Porto Venere... A perfect weekend get away!
