Lorsica, Italy
(Home of the original
De Martini boys)
DEMARTINI Rules
2 of 3 notices involve the name De Martini. Memorialized on the Church, 14 or 16 soilders lost in World Wars I and II were named De Martini. These notices were hung on the side of a building that turned out to be a convenience store. You wouldn't know it to look at it. No film in the store by the way. Note the spelling of the name DEMARTINI.... hmmm, have we had it wrong all these years?.

Lorsica in the distance

Proof I was there!
The more affluent part of Losica,
for those movin' on up.
The village itself
At this point we ran out of film! Can you believe it? And not a 7-11 to be found anywhere!

translator extraordinaire!
