... the end, fantastic driving experience, but it would have been much better to have been able to take photos of other LandyRally vehicles and share the experience. <br> <br><br>It was now around 5 p.m. and we stopped in the town of Bormio to discuss what to do next. The rest of the group would be at Aosta (Italy) by now, and it would take us another 6 hours or so to get there. We didn't ...

Aankomst in Italië en even de tijd nemen om uit te laden en naar Cavalese te rijden. Vandaag nog geen skiën. Onze verblijfplaats: http://www.kalditscherhof.it/home.html

... is a fairly old and wealthy, which can be seen in cobblestone streets and beautiful architecture. The town is located in a valley, surrounded on all sides by impressive mountains. After some sight-seeing we headed up to local ski resort (Merano 2000) for some winter activities. To get to the ski slopes you have to take a short bus ride followed by a 15 minute gondola ride that takes you from some 500m to 2000+ meters. The gondola stops at ...

... andiamo a visitare. Per questa ragione abbiamo deciso di acquistare la NY Pass www.newyorkpass.com , una card del costo di 132$ che offre l'ingresso (senza code) a praticamente tutte le attrazioni della città. Ne esistono numerose altre tra cui la city pass che costa meno ma comprende meno ingressi. (dipende un po' dall'uso che vorrete farne.

... the peak a very fit looking guy came up from a completely different direction and I asked him which way he came, and he said by the via ferrata (iron road). These are routes up the mountains, sections of which are very exposed, and ladders, cables, and other hardware is installed, to which you clip yourself. They were originally built in the Dolomites during WW1 by the Italian army when they were fighting the Austro-Hungarian empire, and they are now found throughout the ...

... is the fourth most popular tourist city in Italy (after Rome, Venice, and Florence of course.)  We saw the old bridge that connected the old city to the newer part. We drove up the hill and saw a view of the city. Then we went into the city and saw where Juliett's house was.  This is not a real house of course but it has a balcony and an old building.  People wrote love notes on the wall going into her house.  Some guys on the ...

... the entire nation seems to have taken. But starting this past Monday, a few more stores are opening up every day. Suddenly, I realize that there are actually tons of gelaterie and bookstores in this city! It's going to be fine. It's going to be great? Well, I've got to go now. I have to go visit the historic Caffè Pedrocchi, which includes a museum on the Risorgimento (unification of Italy), since I have a presentation to do on it in class... A presto, tutti!

... of some pictures &amp; a translated letter Mike brought, Mauro, who is learning English in school, and an English speaking family friend of theirs who dropped by, we were able to communicate just well enough. It was a fun afternoon! We hope to stay in touch with them. As I write this, we are on the train to Venice. The last two days was the start of our first experience with Italy for both of us, and we are loving it so far!! Ciao!

... Yes they had some....yes they had paper.....yes they were free (if you exclude the accomm. costs) and yes they were very interesting. Five toilet brushes they received and an extra brush for novelty value. We shared a loo at the end of the hall with other people - not so interesting- but the one for the restaurant and bar was definitely fun. You walked through a door fit for little people and entered a room that had one loo and two urinals ...

... Betrunkener 1x versucht Roller zu starten, nach 30 Minuten: beide haben es geschafft wegzufahren. Nach einer sehr kurzen Nacht machten wir uns auf den Weg an die Autobahn. In Italien ist es wirklich verboten zu Trampen. Ein negativer Fakt war, dass wir zum Betreten der Autobahn die SOS-Bucht direkt neben dem Hundeheim wählten. Zum Glück hielt nach 10 Minuten ein polnischer Trucker. Gemütlich auf seinem Bett sitzend fuhren wir bis kurz nach Bayreuth...
