Day 1
Good fun as we travelled over with tim & trish. Arrived Milan 8 in the morning and welcomed ourselves at the airport lounge with Campari sodas. Then another and then another and another finished off with a great bottle of Sicilian white. Well we had 5 hours to kill!
Jamie picked us up from the airport and the bike arrived in one piece. Alelulia!!
Off to a wonderful old converted convent for 2 nights at Monreale. Casale del Principe.
Jill travelled well but seems to have a fracture of her collar bone causing some considerable pain.
Put the bike together and off for a warm up ride on a circuit. This is hilly country!
A 4 course dinner on a long refectory table and bed.
