Perugia In August

Perugia is our capital city, known for chocolate, lots of students, evocative medieval architecture, a jazz festival, and apparently a complete indifference to the depiction of women’s breast as bowls of ice cream. What a billboard!
After a hard day of sight seeing, it’s natural to stop for a little pick me up. In our case, I ordered a ‘spremuta’ of lemon, which I hoped would be a nice, cool lemonade type drink. Instead I got a large glass of pulp filled lemon juice, lukewarm. Although I’m sure it was probably good for me, a little ice and sugar would have helped the medicine go down. The pigeons however seemed quite content to woolf down an entire bowl of peanuts in less than 30 seconds.
