Conosceremo il borgo fantasma di Toiano, in cui è tradizione lasciare un addobbo Natalizio per propiziare le feste (portate una pallina e/o una piccola decorazione).

Il paese, adagiato su un poggio di arenaria, si apre su territorio che arriva al mare, attraverso meravigliose colline, boschi, vigneti ed uliveti.

Un percorso affascinante e dai tratti avvolto dal mistero.

Scopriremo anche la misteriosa storia della “bella Elvira”, una giovane abitante di Toiano che fu ritrovata, ormai priva di vita, a soli 22 anni, nel giugno del 1947, nel bosco in cui si recava per approvvigionarsi di acqua. Quale mistero dietro a questo racconto?

Un’occasione per stare insieme anche in questa stagione che offre spunti meravigliosi.

Al termine panettone e bevanda calda, per festeggiare nel modo migliore!!!!
