Turin.

Today we headed to Turin for a mooch about. Never made it to Juventus, unfortunately for El.
We liked Turin. A shoppers paradise, but we still liked it. Lots of big squares and rows of never ending, beautiful, balconied buildings.
Boys and toys.


Pizza stop. (For anyone who thought we were looking slim, scratch that thought!)
And yes, those are chips on a pizza. Can you guess who's slice it is?

Now, there's a bookshop round here somewhere.

Short and sweet today. Would have liked to spend more time here. Girlie weekend anyone?
The driving was crazy though! Mark got us through it. Zebra crossings everywhere and apparently red lights are just a suggestion. At one point we were on tram tracks, alone and a little worried.

    Wow-one moment you are in Rome and now Turin! We flew into Turin to get to Champoluc to go skiing! Looks beautiful-better than the airport we only saw! Xx

    Our weekends away are getting exciting-might have to start a list! Make sure you purchase a pair of shoes before you get back to England! X

    Turin looks great, I would like to go there and see the Turin Shroud if it's still there. Your scavenger pictures were brilliant and your drawings would be perfect for the book cover Jo ��. Lots of love to you all xxx
