Merry Christmas From Siena


  Siena 
  Originally uploaded by fredwilson.

We've been in Siena for the past couple days.

It's a very cool walled city in the center of Tuscany that retains much of its old world charm.

I am headed out to catch Christmas mass (something I haven't done in about 25 years) at the Duomo.

If you have liked Siena don't forget to visit Lucca too :-)
Merry Christmas from Tuscany !

In 2000 Katy and I spent about a month living in a little place just outside of Siena. By far our favorite restaurant in Siena was Antica Osteria da Divo, it's on Via Franciosa, down to the left of the Duomo.

The food is great, the dining room (especially the one towards the back) is AMAZING, the owners are fabulous. We went there a half dozen times over a month or so, not once was the bill inclusive of all the food we ate. Little extra plates just kept appearing.

Favourite town !
Enjoy.

Did they have the floor exposed for the mass?
