I feel I know the place without having been there, and your post adds yet more to that picture.Gavin Plumleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08367649538228383713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1248503935075362425.post-41385802862173572872010-06-27T09:11:48.532+01:002010-06-27T09:11:48.532+01:00Reading this, one has a very strong impression tha...Reading this, one has a very strong impression that you've caught the essence of the city. I love all the evidence of eventual acceptance + oecumenical nourishment for body and soul, for eye and mind. And why not 'peaceful' - it is both 'le mot juste' and the necessary condition for any form of spiritual connection, so your instincts are spot-on.<br />I really want to see those medieval mosaics, and have coffee @ San Marco (where I bet much time could be spent trying to identify the cartouches!).<br />Animals at ease (as opposed to either threatened or pampered as they are here)? Yes, definitely a mark of civilisation, D!<br />Looking forward to the Winckelmann mem/sculpture park post. But thank you for an enlightening (and enticing) introduction to Trieste so far: really want to go there!Minniehttp://minniebeaniste.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1248503935075362425.post-46930017175134993342010-06-27T00:02:38.348+01:002010-06-27T00:02:38.348+01:00How funny - or spooky.

I guess quite a few things don't change much over time in Trieste...and for once I think I rather like that.Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14506881804082382739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1248503935075362425.post-48145486640382231312010-06-26T15:30:36.502+01:002010-06-26T15:30:36.502+01:00I love it when I get to see things through your ey...I love it when I get to see things through your eyes - even if they are thing with which I have a passing familiarity. Thanks for helping me relive my memories of a city that I enjoyed immensely and so want to go back to. And that cat... that cat... she was there every time we walked past.Willymhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03652532356102638621noreply@blogger.com
