Shopping Day

Bongiorno All,

Not much to report today.  Early on we decided to go our own ways, me on bicycle, Lorraine on foot.  By a quirk of fate we managed to bump into each other mid morning and agreed to meet for lunch.  I had decided the bike was too much for my back.  No suspension, dodgy bike and cobblestones were no match for my lower back, so I returned the bike and was not charged for it as we had hired the Vespa for 48 hours, so the owner waived the bike hire of 3 hours.  So a big thumbs up to "Bici & Baci" for the ease of hire and wonderful service.

So we ended up shopping together and bought up a storm.  Some things are surprises so no details in order not to ruin our fun of the reveal, suffice to say I now own some very nice hand made Italian shoes, some shirts and shorts, another couple of hats to add to the collection and last night I scored a bottle of Laphroaig for the equivalent  $60AUD, an absolute steal.  Its hard work sipping this slowly while I type.  We also bought some very nice art pieces and I had a hand made stand made to order by a metal worker to hang my pocket watch from.

Shopping and rest day tomorrow before taking the train to Geneva on Sunday.  Maybe not many photos, though I do want to wander around at night to get some night shots in.

Ciao

Sean and Lorraine
