18th December 2009 Home, sweet home

Finally back home for Christmas

It was not easy to get back but I did it. Almost missed my flight. Left hotel 8.30am and headed for Malpensa. GPS could not find satelites - so funny - but the the way from via Toffetti is very easy.
Easy was to get on the truck but not not easy was to drive - till San Goivani the traffic was moving with the spead about 12 km/ hour. This was caused by accidents.
Accidents - this is what happens more often when snowing. One day I saw three of them with different combination of the vehicles. But the picture of peole was the same - standing, smoking cigarets and discussing - no stress at all. I think that small bumbs happen quite often in this country. The conclusion is drawn from ammount of CAROZZERIA places accross all Italy.

Anyway - arrived 10.10 and flight was at 11.00. people from Hertz just took my the keys and I could go.

Check in - I was the last one. I was blessed today with the people at the desk - no payment for the overlaguage. And it was just quite - all this nice things I got on the way. I have not noticed that I collected so many of them. I did not buy a lot but things which will remind me places.
So I have: chocolate form Arezzo;
Olive oil produced by nuns in Tuscany;
Wine from Cormons where I made a break during heavy rain. I saw the winery and the rain stopped;
Panettone from Piemonte;
Coffee from Genova;
Wine from Sud Tirol where I could speak Gearman again;
Sweets from Piemonte;
A book on Agatha Chistie from Milan;

As I look now I got only fragile items. And quite bulky as well.

Back at home - and this strange filling that I do not fill like at home. Marta, who is taking care of my flat while I am in Itlay made some changes which she needed and the flat was a little bit strange to me. I encouraged her to do this - as she is staying here everyday she should fill comfortable in it. I am here just till 11th January 2010.
Next part of my assigment begins in Sicily.

Strange filling.
