On the 13th the family departed for Pavia/Portalbera, which is right between Turin and Milan. On our way there we took a very leisurely and relaxing car trip. We took mostly scenic routes to enjoy the beautiful countryside. 

Look at that eyebrow!!

Family photo… It’s wonderful for all of us to be in there. Again this is courtesy of Backpack. He is really an excellent photographer. 😉

We drove for a nice while around this lake, Lake Garda.

How Andrew gets around. Hitchhiking!

Standing around looking at all the beauty around us.

A lovely shot of the water.

Boats and water…

Many times while we were driving we would see a pretty spot and pull off, like we did here.

Or we would stop to eat lunch…

Andrew wasn’t exactly thrilled with dad’s choice of cars. He would have preferred something a little more…red…more…HORSEY. So he altered our black Ford Fiesta.

  

That evening we got some aperitivs from the grocery store and some potato chips to eat at home. (also, not pictured because I’m a flake, a coconut. I like coconut! ;))

What happens when the house you’re staying in doesn’t have wi-fi… 😛
