I dreamt that I was helping the mayor of Motovun and a member of the municipal council carry a metal table and several chairs made by a local craftsman. The set showed in a humorous way the key results of a recent municipal opinion poll concerning tourist development. We carried it from one café to another. The mayor wanted to show it to a guest from the Czech Republic, who was a member of the European Parliament. He served on an important commission concerned with tourist development. I do not remember much more of the dream, except that the town was crowded with tourists, and that it was not easy picking our way through so many people. The furniture we were carrying was not very heavy, but it was rather awkward. When I woke up, I could not stop marveling at my dream. The mayor carrying anything! The two of us cooperating! The humorous local craftsmen! The municipal opinion poll on any subject whatsoever! The mayor of my dreams in a nutshell. Such a mayor Motovun will never have, I can claim without any fear of contradiction. Mere dreams.
