The place near Lucca where I spent part of the last two summers was near a bar. There seemed to be a group from the neighborhood that would spend their days there just watching the cars go by (except during the world cup they watched that). It seemed an eerily closed society.
I agree that it is interesting to watch the older folks hang out in the small town squares. It is certainly different than the U.S.
Thanks for visiting my neck of the internet woods. See you soon.

What a great post. Love the picture.

There is really something special about friendship that last and last.

Happy LT

Awwwww, loved the post!

And I find it neat that we both wrote about lifelong friends in our Love Thursday.

I love reading your blog and living vicariously through you in Italy!

Really special post.

My parents lived in the U.S. for decades and still have friends from their Caribbean childhood.

I try to remember this everytime I miss my closest friends (most of them live on the east coast).

I love your photo! In almost every culture you could take a picture of longtime friends gathering together, in a restaurant, in a plaza, at home, just happy to be together. Thanks for reminding us to cherish the friends we have.

I love heartwarming posts about friends. It is so frustrating for me sometimes to have my best firends in other states; I can’t imagine how hard it would be if they were in a different country! The best friendships really can weather anything though.

Great post!

I don’t have many friends, but the few close ones that I do have, I cherish them like little sparkles of sunshine in my life.
I’m so glad to have found your bloggie (I think you found me first) because you are, to me, like a ray of sunshine in cyberspace.
