Another narrow street in Barga, this is the bottom of Via Borgo, the start of an uphill climb from the Red telephone box. At least many of these narrow streets offer some welcome shade from the hot August sun.
Blue sky, sunshine and a British Red Telephone Box! It cannot be Britain as the sky would be grey and it would be raining. In fact, it is in the centre of Barga. Yes, there is a classic red telephone box in Barga, probably the only one in Italy although I did see a red London bus in Sicily a few years ago. The box was a gift to Barga from Mauro Cecchini, a retired fish and chip shop owner from Edinburgh whose family came from Barga. The fish and chip festival is also on..... well Barga is nicknamed the Most Scottish Town in Italy!
