Daily Sketch No.62 Porta Macchiaia, Barga, Tuscany

There are three entrances into Barga Vecchia, this one is called Porta Macchiaia and is the oldest. I mentioned in one of my postings a few days ago that Italian drivers are very skillful at parking. Notice a Volvo estate car parked on the left of the sketch owned by Ricardo Negri who owns the L’Osteria in Piazza Angelio. To drive a car that length into Barga takes great skill and nerves of steel!
