The playing room faces north, with a good view of the ferry dock (and at the appropriate times, a little bit of traffic noise from cars racing to catch the boat). The Mediterranean sunlight is so intense that the room is comfortably well lit naturally, at least right now at 4:00 P.M. local time.

Jim is still working on getting the live video set up.
