Weather: lovely
We arrived in Turin yesterday and stayed at the Atlantic hotel in Torino Borgaro. Had dinner in their rather posh restaurant: appetisers, ravioli, steak and veal) followed by pineapple and strawberries, with a nice (and cheap!) valpolicella. This morning we had a quick breakfast and set off to the train station. Strike. Back to hotel. Taxi of mad Italian driver and extortionate cost. Met group at airport, transfer to Montbardon (once we got out of the carpark.) More evidence of mad Italian drivers. Settled in gite, very pretty little double room for me and Rob, dorms for everyone else. We went for a potter along the forest track and back. Veg soup, turkey and rice and plenty of cheese for dinner.
