Siena is most famous for its yearly Palio, which is a horse race that takes place in the middle of the city in a big square...Stayed here for 4 days! I know, thats the longest we stayed in one place in Italy!



The getting ready for the Palio, did you know they don't even get to choose their own horse, the horses are raffled out.

The actual Palio! Look at all those people! and when the race begins they all quiet down!

THe first picture is of the parade that happens before the race, and then its mommy, and then its actually a picture of the race!See the horses?

evenings...when mommy and daddy snuck away and left nanny, marc, and me to cook spagetti and read inistead of watch tv, because we couldn't understand the italien...
