3 days in Italy

Right before I travelled to visit Grit, I took the train with my hubby and we went to a conference in Milano /Italy. My first visit there... 

I really liked to see the Duomo, and even go up its roof.

I even more enjoyed spending time with Alessandra, whom I hadn't seen in almost a year!

And I really enjoyed eating excellent ice-cream (gelati), and strolling down the streets with my friend!

Can you imagine that Milano is only 4.5 hours' train from home?

Visiting Grit

After Grit coming to see us in February and discover the snow and the mountains, it was our turn to ride the night train and go and visit her! We took advantage of a long week-end, and of the possibility to put the car on a train. Otherwise, the journey is over 800 miles, and I would'nt have done it all by myself! After Hamburg, the drive was another 3-4 hours!

 

It was a big joy to meet again, and share good memories. Even if the time spent together was quite short, it was definitely worth the trip! Her area is wonderful, flat, windy, beautiful, soothing (I love the see!)... and her home is really cozy.

Thank you Grit for welcoming us in your home!
