Italy

An Italian adventure..

Bonjourno. Its been a while since we last put on the backpack and headed out into the great unknown. Not so much of an adventure and more of a cultural experience is planned for this little joint. Although I do have a few little surprises in store for Crispy to try and keep her moving.

Its been a busy time in the Crispy household since last we returned from foreign climbs. Several little expeditions in Abbey, our comfortable plastic palace have taken us through The Lakes, Wales and Yorkshire with a few great walks and trips to the high places of this marvellous country of ours. Plus we have started cycling on our nrew hybrid bicycles, which I must say Crispy loves doing.

We are waiting for the train to take us to the airport and then onto Bergamo, northern Italy, before trying to get to Milan before the last train leaves for Como, our first stop, at 19:10. Its going to be tight if there are any delays (and that's always a possibility with Ryan Air) but I'm sure that if I can get Crispy to get a trot on we will make it OK.

From Como the plan is to travel the length of Italy taking in Venice, Florence, Pisa, Naples and Sorrento before heading back to Rome for a night and flying home. A busy itinery but one that will be filled with glorious sights and lots of fun. Not to mention a few glasses of Vino here and there. I'll try to update this blog every day and unlike Asia there should not be too much of an issue with power and Wi-Fi.
