Renato and
Miles (red team) compete in the "Due Palle" ("Two Balls")
game at Miles's birthday party.

At left, Pontremoli's train station,
early morning. This year they decided not to bother
keeping the ticket office open all day. Now you
can only purchase tickets between 5am and noon.
Two unveilings: below left,
Don Lorenzo unveils the memorial to Vittorio Micheli
