Here is something I found very interesting...While readingPrince of Foxes by Samuel Shellabarger, he mentions the town of Narni. You guys will love this...I was excited for days: Saint Lucia comes from the town of Narni.

Does anyone else think that is cool? I haven't been able to find anything that hints Lewis got his inspiration from Narni--but the coincidence is astounding.

Yes, we have the facts in the English DVD versions too.

I know about Narni, because I have read your interesting comments on Narniaweb about it. You have shared many things about your town there, and it shows me that you are very proud to belong to this famous town with a name that is world-famous!

I've been to Italy, but not to Narni. One day I hope to return, and then I will visit Narni too.
