It's poppy season in Tuscany
Italian Weddings, Saracens and Swimming Pools, Arezzo, Tuscany - 12th June 2013
More continuing ramblings from a week in Italy as we happen upon an Italian wedding, do a bit of arctic swimming in the pool and witness a practice for a forthcoming festival to do with Saracens. This involves lots of lound drumming and trumpet playing. Finally, we rediscover the joys of Limoncello.

The washing-line art flaps in the breeze
The crowds are out under the washing
Fred scrunches up his eyes
Fred does 'earwig face' as Harry does a blessing
An Italian wedding occurs in the square
The bride arrived in this lovely old Citroën
More washing hangs out in Arezzo's main square
Fred mills around on the Corso Italia
Harry gets his own tee-shirt
Fred scoffs spaghetti
Harry sucks on a dummy
More laundry
Fred kicks in the water
Fred legs it from a sharp rain shower
Drops of rain on a swimming pool
Fred and Isobel on the wet pool-side
Fred on the steps of the big church in Arezzo
It's time for dinner at Ciao Trattoria
Harry scopes out the menu
Pavement tables at Ciao restaurant
Five people sat on a wall
Night-time Arezzo street scene
'Knights' are practising for a Saracens festival
Drums in the square
Massed trumpets
The drummers march off
Fred and Isobel just off the escalators
Harry is in Ipercoop to score more food to eat
Whole hanging proscuitto hams
Fred hangs around the pool
Fred with Isobel's sunglasses
A photo of Nosher's new shades, for some reason
Harry with Fred's cap on
Storm clouds drift over
Our nice, but very cold, swimming pool
Ahh, the rustic joys of Limoncello time
Evening light
Isobel checks her pooPhone
