Siena is on a hilltop, so the views are really lovely, if hazy.

Each city ward (contrada) has its own symbol, portrayed on flags and lamps. This is Onda, the wave.

Cin cin! Dinner was lovely - my first real Italian meal.

A quiet moment - Palazzo Chigi-Saracini. The flags are the for the contrade.

This hill is very steep! I was glad it was dry.

Incipient figs, which will be an excellent band name for later.

Siena, Day 1

29 Haziran 2024, İtalya ⋅ ☁️ 88 °F

I woke up early and went for a walk to get my bearings. After some rest, reading, and practice, I walked back to the old city center to get dinner. It’s a bit over a mile to get there - I could take a bus but it feels good to move, and I figured (correctly) that dinner would be rich. I feel like I’m starting to acclimate and get into the groove as of this evening.

Hey, neato. I can caption each photo separately. This would have been handy last year! Limited length, but I can practice pithiness.Okumaya devam et
