natale a bologna






While downtown in Bologna for more business for our permessi di soggiorno, we all got a chance to see Bologna decked out for Christmas. Christmas involves an emphasis on different things here in Bologna than it does at home- nativity scenes instead of Christmas trees, like this huge one with not just the scene of the holy family but little scenes to represent all the many and varied professions; and ceste, or baskets of treats, instead of gifts between adults, this liquor and chocolate store window has pretty selection ranging in price up to 200 euros.
