Today we took a two and a half hour bus trip
from Rome to Assisi. When we arrived, a tour guide took us through the inside
walls of Assisi and into the St Francis of Assisi Basilica. After the tour, we
were able to spend time getting lunch and browsing the interesting shops along
the streets. Before leaving for the hotel we were able to experience the
celebration of ‘La Bafana’ (A witch who delivers gifts for the good children
and coal for the bad.) We waited for her to descend on her broomstick from a
clock tower.
Christmas tree in Assisi in Piazza della Commune
La Befana climbing down from the bell tower
in Piazza della Comune – Assisi. She later handed all the young children
stockings containing sweets.
