Ponte a Serraglio is white with snow

It isn’t often that I get to pull on my snow boots, but I knew when I saw them on sale in Bloomingdales a few years ago that they would come in handy one day…that day has arrived here in Bagni di Lucca.

I awoke this morning to see our beautiful village covered with snow…and it is still falling…time to get those boots on and head out with my camera. These first few photos were taken from the relative warmth of my balcony.

Time to hit the streets. Just as well I haven’t planted the pansies on the bridge yet.

Our little news kiosk is open for business in the snow.

Il Monaco is still serving excellent coffee and sfoglia.

But there are no takers for the outside tables.

Now for a walk along the river.

Tinas’s front yard is looking gorgeous.

There is plenty of room on the benches this morning.

This is probably not the best form of transport for today.

There are pansies under here.

I took lots of photos…I couldn’t help myself.

I will be back out soon to make more tracks in the snow.
