Reverts text→datetime change. Uses format:'Y-m-d' (date-only) so the datepicker omits the time component. Strips HH:MM from all Italy demo story dates for consistency with the new date-only format.

| One Evening in Siena | 2025-09-05 | Siena | Italy | 43.318 | 11.330 | hero.jpg | The Piazza del Campo at dusk, terracotta rooftops fading to blue | true |

We rolled in at half past six, legs finished, panniers heavier than they started. The Campo appeared without warning at the end of a narrow street and we both stopped pedalling at exactly the same moment.
[scrolly-section image="hero.jpg" alt="Piazza del Campo seen from the upper rim, sloping shell-shaped square"] The square fills from the edges inward as evening comes. First the locals — people who have been here before and know which bench faces west. Then the tourists, then the pigeons, then the shadows.
A busker with a cello at the top of the slope. A couple arguing quietly in a language I couldn't place. Three children running in a circle for reasons nobody questioned. The ordinary business of a city at the end of a summer day. [/scrolly-section]

We found a place to eat down three flights of stairs in a basement that appeared to have no ventilation and no menu. It was perfect. The relief of sitting down after eight hours on a bike is a specific physical sensation that is difficult to describe to anyone who has not experienced it.
