All pictures are mineAnother day of incredible sun that left us all stoned.The turnout has increased today, but the demonstration has still been quite liveable, with acceptable queues and dignified mobility.Even today we managed to get to be found on time in the queue at opening hours, we started from the manga pavilions that we sold out quite quickly not being great readers. We visited where they play D&d the adventure designed to celebrate the fifty years of the most famous role-playing game in the world.

All pictures are mineFor being one of the most liveable days at Lucca Comics ever, it was a tiring day.We made our way to the Carducci pavilion, that of the games to understand each other, opened a good 40 minutes late. We went far and wide and tried the Altered card game that intrigued me. From there we moved to take a tour of the walls, to the Panini area, to the PalaRiot, to the Junior area. We visited the exhibition of the 50th anniversary of D&D (beautiful), entered the Cruncyroll and Wicked pavilions and then an aperitif and dinner with some friends.

All pictures are mineAfter a somewhat engorged period I come to tell you a little about expectations and hopes for this Lucca Comics & Games 2024.Let's start with the weather that should be positive. Not only no rain, but even a few sunny days.

All pictures are mineToday, the European Central Bank has decided to reduce interest rates by 25 basis points. This decision was taken in response to an updated assessment of the inflationary outlook and the strength of the monetary policy transmission. The deposit rate was lowered to 3.25%, the main operating rate to 3.40% and the use rate to 3.65%. This interest rate cut represents a significant move in the ECB's strategy to stimulate the European economy and address current economic challenges.

Knowing that I like to travel, he asks me if I want to go and talk about my trip. We agree on Morocco, I go, I talk about it and we are all happy.
