Final Italy Post 2009
August 27, 2009Here are some images from my trip to Italy. Lest you get the idea that we never worked, let me give you our schedule right off the bat.
My daily schedule in Italy generally went like this… Wake up at 5:45. Run for a half hour barefoot on the golf course. Come back, shower, do a little yoga and make breakfast.
Ride my bike to the field in time for an 8:15 meeting. On the field by 9. Practice till 12, break for lunch, then back out on the field for a 1:15 game. Play the game, coach my butt off, extra work if anyone was interested, and ride my bike back to the crib. Usually home by 4:30 or so.
Then I’d usually get in the car and go explore. These are the photos you see. In the few weeks I was there, we had one off day and two half days. And if you got my Catching Tip of the Week a few issues ago about never complaining about the weather, put your ear muffs on. I’m going to complain. It was smoking hot. Well into the 100’s with humidity.
Anyway, it was a great experience once again. Here’s the evidence. Enjoy.

Almost all the houses have this look.
I got lost and wandered into this neat old town by a river.
Fish market
Either bait or food or both.
