Well I’m here, finally ensconced back in Bologna and happy to be here but also happy to really be heading home now. A day of travel is always exhausting as we all know. Its subways, planes, busses and tramping in between (Amsterdam is lovely at this time of year!!). The last straw was the Bologna airport bus only going to the central station which was the final walk with 2 heavy cases. Anyway I got here and am staying in the apartment right next to Fabrizio’s surgery which is a bit awkward. She was here to meet me…a bit awkward. She was worried that she should do something with me tonight but I said I just wanted to go for a walk and I’d pick something up when I was out. We were both relieved about that but I fear I won’t get off so lightly tomorrow night. I must say they do their apartments well though. They are the best ones I’ve ever stayed in.
So I went out and walked around. I got a meal (aaaahhhhh…back to Italian food…thank goodness) and half a litre of wine…all as it should be.
I’m not sure if this email is going to make it. My hotmail account (the only one I can send with) has again shut me down because they think in their wisdom that they have detected a security breach…thanks very much guys!!!!
More tomorrow but soon there will be no more. By the way its much warmer here!!
