Very Short Walk

No wanderings here, this is in almost straight line the route to my mom's and back: too hot for detours...
A plaque in “Via Micali” reminds us that the poet Giovanni Pascoli lived here in 1887-8. He was teaching at our “liceo classico” and wrote here part of “Myricae” (Tamarisks), his first poetic work.Fake green and flower are another kind of poetry in “Via Battisti”.Watch out for the dog, in “Via Oberdan”.“Trattoria da Motorino” (Scooter's Trattoria), a renowned restaurant.
Church of “San Benedetto” in “Piazza XX Settembre”, some of the old tombstones in the facade.
