Grappa
2 weeks ago we visited to Bassano del Grappa, which is a beautiful city in northern Italy, where they make Grappa. It is a small town and they have a grappa museum. It was good to see, because I did not know how grappa is made. In earlier days it was the poor man's drink, because it is made from grape pomace, meaning the skins and seeds.

Then onto another bus for 15 min ride to Bassano. ...

Nos bajamos en el Puente Rialto para pasear y comprar unos regalitos y después nos volvimos a subir para llegar a ...
Heading Home
... you could add "Valley of Pain" to the play list. I only wish I could send you the Mac album but I haven't figured out how to do that yet. Imagine my surprise when I tried to transfer the entire finished product and it didn't work. Transferring and editing these pictures from my slide show to Travel Pod one by one has been a real character builder. Sort of like remodeling.
