LEGAL NEWS FLASH: Our son, Michael, informed us on Tuesday that I got another driving ticket in the mail for unknowingly entering a limited access driving zone in Siena without permission. This infraction carries a hefty fine of 105 Euros!
The date of the violation? March 14, 2008! I received this ticket 15 months after the fact. I don't know if Italy has a Statute of Limitations but I believe that I do!
After following our Golden Rule for Maximizing Your Beach Time Enjoyment, "No Beach On The Weekends", we ventured out yesterday to one of our favorite lidos in nearby Aci Trezza.
As always, park me with a book and under an umbrella and I'm set for the day!
I felt SO serene in the water knowing that if anything happened, our lido's lifeguard, seen here, would be there to rescue me.
This three day Festival started Tuesday night with a religious parade through town.
This wannabe gondolier guards the Candelaria.
These pescatori don't seem too concerned with the Opening Ceremonies in their honor.
I thought the priest brought out this consecrated host to parade around town.
Laurie thought it was a relic like maybe the town's Patron Saint's, St. John the Baptist, ring finger or something of that sort!

Before you went to Italy, I had no idea you had such criminal tendencies. On the other hand, it's nice you're doing so much to support the governments of Italy's great cities.
Two more tickets and I get considered for a junior membership in the local Mafia family.
