Mille Miglia

A couple of weeks ago the road rally called 1000 Miglia came through our town. The 1000 Miglia happens every year and usually marks the true beginning of spring. Hundreds of antique cars, many I've never seen before come and drive around Italy, and I thought it might be interesting to show a few images of what this looks like from the perspective of our little art gallery. Two things not shown is the loud noise of very old powerful gas engines and the smell they produce as they idle at a stop waiting for the forward cars to make room.
