Walk Slow, Drive Fast

September 11, 2004 – 22:11

We have been in Milan for a couple of days now. Put my foot on Italian soil 19:55 Wednesday, Henrik borrowed 1,50 euro from me 20:15 for the airport shuttle that took us on a wild ride to Bergamo. Where we stayed the first night visiting Citta Alta before midnight, by foot. On the way down via Emanuel, after being stuck behind two beautiful italian teenage girls for twenty minutes (I didn’t complain), Henrik stated that it actually was true, the italians walk slow and drive fast.

Briefs for Milan

September 7, 2004 – 20:03

Tomorrow it’s off for Henrik and me to Milan. The way we over the last couple of days aggregated intelligence to plan our trip, it feels more like a special op. than a vacation. But I hope it pays off since we’re doing this on a pretty tight budget in a city generally known for high fashion and shopping.

The primary reason we’re going is of course to see the Formula One Grand Prix at Monza next Sunday. But in our attempt to save cost on airfare we also ended up with some extra days to spend in Italy.

Since we have a tradition of sucking in the documentation department of our adventures I asked Henrik to see if he could borrow some digital camera for this trip. So Henrik being Henrik went out and bought a new 5.1 megapixel digital camera with 512MB of storage media. This time, I guess, we will have a tad bit more pictures to share with the world.
