Day 11 Italy 2008

We went to Deruta today. On the way, we saw a herd of sheep (or maybe angora goats???) being directed by a dog. We tried to take pictures, but the dog keep coming up to the car and barking. It was on a severe curve in the road, and I worried that a car would come around the curve and hit some of them. The Italians drive very fast!!


Deruta is known for its beautiful ceramics. We strolled the many shops and found them to be pretty expensive. There seemed to be some preparation for a festival with balloons, foods, etc. When we asked what the celebration was, they said their soccer team had won a big tournament. We took some pictures of the boys before the festivities began and waited for a time, but decided to leave as we were not sure when the festivities were to begin.
