 We are headed down to the festival of the Madonna. The sea is at the end of the street. The yellow 4 story building is where we will be watching from directly in front of Brother b( In the first floor). The Madonna is carried out to the Old chapel where is came from and then returned by sea. This Framed picture--- NOT a statue --is the miracle of being preserved from fire and being lost at sea and found undamaged. AT 1 am that morning the madonna was carried out for  a sunrise service and now it will return at sunset.
 The frame will be carried up the street to the Duomo. This frame is not the real one. The real one is only brought out every 7 years , we are told next year will be the 7th year. 
ON our walk we found the tree the fruit with the stones/pits came from.

  1. So does this mean you will be able to see the real one next year? That is very interesting.
