OMG! I Saw Barack Obama in a Train Station Bar in Viareggio! · Jun 11, 11:52 PM by James Martin
We were on our way home from Lucca and had to stop in Viareggio to change trains. We scoped out the bar in the station. There he was. His head was bigger than you might have imagined. He is slim. Impossibly slender. Stick-like even. Oh, wait…
Viareggio is known for its carnival celebration, carnevale. The Obama mask, shown above, was quite popular. I had a peach flavored ice tea without any ice; it, too, is all the rage in Italy.
