Livorno - Piazza ...
Piazza della Republica in the centre of Livorno.
No one around - not surprising due to the state of the weather.
Everywhere looks very forlorn.

The Colosseum - not looking it's best I think
This picture could be mistaken for some derelict Lancashire cotton mill awaiting demolition.
More flattering pictures to follow..

Ferry Boat - Lake Como
This was the ferry boat in 1987 between Cadenabbia and Bellagio.
It looks like a miserable day - we had a lot of rain that week.

Livorno - Wet day
Another wet day in Livorno - the palm tree looking a bit sad in the cold and rain.
Nothing worse than wet weather when you are on holiday ....
