What makes Reggio Calabria unique

A month in Reggio Calabria in September.  It was hot, noisy and chaotic, and thoroughly enjoyable because of it.

Fish given to us by our neighbour after he had been fishing at Scilla nearby 
A poster of a writer declaring pride in his Calabria 
Big fat delicious cannoli as part of the festival.
View from our balcony. Hundreds of people carrying the image of the Virgin, thousands following. 
And below, dancing the tarantella in the streets. Hot sweaty and compelling.
