In questi giorni sembra estate. Cosa c'è di meglio dell'acqua quando si ha sete? Berla dove? Al Toret naturalmente. Toret (scritto così senza alcuna sorta d'accento si pronuncia: /'tu:ret/ = "u" di "uva"). Qui le fontanelle d'acqua si chiamano "toret" in dialetto torinese. L'acqua infatti sgorga da una specie di testa di toro (come si può vedere) e "Torino" discende da Toro.

What a nice way to cool off and you must have been standing on something to get this great shot!

Yep, the summer heat can be quite a killer. Sadly, we dont have any such bull-heads giving us water in Mumbai's streets. But with the monsoons just being a few weeks away, the heat shall fade away.

Ciao Fabrizio,
I have only just checked your blog as my parents were visiting Turin so I have been quite busy. There are some breathtaking photos – I love the ones of Piazza San Carlo in the rain and the Salone del Libro (which I went to).
I am glad summer seems to be here and Turin will now be a bit quieter that 'la ostensione Sindone' has finished. More than 2 million visitors. Incredible.
Have a nice week.
Thank you Virginia
I'm sorry kunal bhatia you don't have any public water dispenser in Mumbai
Hi Mike, I'm happy you could be back in Torino those days :-)
Nice angle, nice bull, nice boy.
