The 27th day, Sunday, Palm Sunday.
Beautiful day, heard that there are quite many people walking on the street, which is normal for a Sunday and especially on the Palm Sunday when people go to the church to get the olive branches. But now we are in a lockdown.
Looking out from the balcony, there are some people walking around, some even went into the church nearby, yet no one is carrying any olive branches....
The other day, on the way to the pharmacy when I passed by the town hall, there wasn't anymore the people who passed by in front of the townhall endlessly. Even the guards used to be by the door have disappeared.
There were a total of 3 men I saw that day :
One was walking his dog, one with face mask was crossing rather quickly and one who was strolling under the arcade relaxingly, occasionally he stopped to look at the shop windows.
Last night, several group of people disobedienced the lockdown and tired to 'smuggle' to Liguria, to their vacation house by the seaside. They were intercepted half way, reported and sent back to home.
Heard that they are many people who couldn't resist the temptation of the beauty of the Spring, so they decided to get out to the streets to have a nice walk.
If there is any consequence to such reckless behavior, I am afraid they will not be the only one who has to pay for the price....
A banner written 'Everything will be fine' was hung outside the balcony of the town hall
Location : Piazza Palazzo Di Città
