SUMMER TIME IN MONTECARLO

 
Summer time in Tuscany is sun, sunflowers, grapes, wine, good food and a relaxed environment so you can feel stress disappear. People watching become your hobby along chatting with the guys at your local “Alementari”.

You enjoy the different festivals that appear local, either it is food festivals or it is Historic Festivals, Charity events or local marked.

We popped into two of these during this summer in Montecarlo. Middle of June it was the charity “Cena della Misericordia”. The whole main street Via Roma was covered with a long table from one end to the other. Locals along with tourist sitting down pay 15 Euro for a 4 course meal with local wine. All supported by local business in Montecarlo. The chat went lively among them, and as more wine the better the tourist were speaking Italian.
 

It was a fantastic evening and look forward to the same event next year.


A few weeks later Montecarlo celebrated its founder Carl VI. Montecarlo can celebrate 700 years so the festival with old costumes and artistic presentation during the last weekend in June.

If this will be a yearly happening is too early to say, but it was fun to see the involvement of the community.

We are lucky to become “Montecarlese”.  Montecarlo is located very central to larger cities ac Florence, Pisa and Lucca in addition you will find in each smaller city in Tuscany that they celebrate in the same way as in Montecarlo or Lucca. Just drop in, look for the posters to see what is happening and it does, more or less all year round.

  1. Today, an airport represents everything about a country's identity and development, as well as the nature of its interaction with the rest of the world.
    Countries have constructed airports to handle both modern aircraft and bigger planes capable of transporting thousands of passengers simultaneously.
    As a result, in order to satisfy the needs of the world's largest and busiest airports, Qatar constructed a modern airport that meets all essential standards. The airport is named Hamad International Airport and is located in Doha, Qatar's capital.
    Qatar's new airport will catapult the country to the forefront of emerging nations with the most advanced airports.
    Qatar enjoys a distinguished international reputation and is home to a global network of ties, both east and west.
