I feel so sorry for the Italians living in the North/North West of the country. Their lives have been marred by land/mudslides over the years, burying people along the way.
I remember visiting a churchyard in Torbole where many lost their lives during the 1960's mudslides. Lots of children lost their lives too. The memory of the wall of pictures of the children stayed with me for ages and still will.
I also remember entering a long tunnel into Torbole from the airport and admit to being scared when I saw wire-netting on the slopes one side of the road.
I felt quite unsettled in that area with the Dolomites also rising above in the distance. It was perishing cold until we ventured into Venice where it was in the 80's.
Now the people are suffering adversity again, poor souls.
