Chasing the Star of Swords: Sword Dancing on a Watson Fellowship 
Bagnasco but not Fenestrelle? Shame!
Don’t worry, Fenestrelle is in there too, a few days later! Did you see them at the sword spec?
You can find it at https://starofswords.wordpress.com/2011/09/07/fools-and-food-in-fenestrelle-or-seeing-sword-dance-and-striptease/
Oh, Yes. The whole village was there! Smashing to see them again. And Oier with Kezka (who I think was at York because I suggested it to him).
I visited Bagnasco a few (!) years ago after meeting them at the 2000 sword spec- http://www.petermilne.eu/bagnasco/index.htm
Great photos! It looks like they were dancing in a different place, do you remember where it was?
The dancing that weekend was in the sportsground in the centre of Bagnasco, not far from the church. A very small event with half-a-dozen guests groups from N Italy, but very friendly. I’ve kept in touch with the Lachera group and taken a couple of UK sword teams to their carnivale since.
