 |
| Siena take 2! This time for the famed Palio. |
 |
| The flags of each contrada. |
 |
| If you try and try again... Made it into Siena's Duomo the second time around. Definitely worth it! |
 |
| The most successful contrada, represented by "l'oca." |
 |
| Siena from up high! |
 |
| Our group, minus 1. |
 |
| The piazza had been transformed! |
 |
| Messing with cameras, like always. |
 |
| This horse was taken into the church to be blessed. I'm not kidding. |
 |
| The winning horse, hours before the race! A horse and its boy, haha. |
 |
| Alfred, my Italo-Taiwanese friend. |
 |
| Veronique. |
 |
| It was a close race between this man... |
 |
| ...and this girl for happiest person in Siena on that day. |
 |
| Getting ready! |
 |
| The flag of the contrada I was rooting for. |
 |
| The fall that knocked out 6 horses. |
 |
| 70 seconds later, everyone celebrates a great Palio. Thanks, Siena! |
