This year's edition of la festa di San Giovanni in Bragora started
Wednesday evening with belly-dancing, Bollywood-style dance,
and a summer solstice celebration. It continues through Sunday with
events I hope you'll be able to read on the official
locandina at bottom. Or a click on either of the following links will take you to a page in either Italian or English with information and a link to the full schedule (click "locandina.pdf"):

Buongiorno, Siggie. This post, and the previous, fragrant one, have made me an unbecoming shade of green with envy. Aren't you glad you live where you do, despite earthquakes, tornadoes, heat waves and that sort of stuff!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you forced yourself to go to this Festa, just so you could share it with us.
I am indeed glad to be here, in spite of calamities, natural and man-made. But Jen is the one we must thank for covering the above festa--and I didn't even have to force her--while I stayed home with Sandro. Now if she would only write the posts as well as photograph them...
