Viareggio
In Viareggio, we met an old Spider friend, Andrea
Pieraccini. He was in Limburg in 1997 with his family. Good to see you
again Andrea. We met in Limburg, Holland in 1998 at the International
Alfaspider meeting.

Andrea and his nice
family were kind enough to invite us for a whole day in Viareggio. Eating
and drinking, swimming in the blue Mediterranean salty water. It was a
really enjoyable day. Thank you all. |

Lucca
June 20. . . .and in Lucca, another Spider friend from
Hawaii. David Ross and his family. We have been web friends since 1997

We agreed to meet
at the church in Lucca. It turned out that there were 68 churches, but we
managed thanks to the cellular mobile phones. |
June 22. The other
"B" in B&B means breakfast. Here we are, Wille, Stina and
Thomas enjoying the specialties of Toscana. Berit and Thomas are Duetto
friends from Stockholm. Nice persons. |

Passo
di Cipollaio
Driving on the very scenic roads, we found this
abandoned castle. I must admit that I would like to be there.
|
The Carrarra marble
is famous. This Scania lorry was driving like Clay Regazzoni up and down
the mountain . . . |

|
|
|
when he met another
Scania on its way up the mountain. One feels very small in a Spider when
these two trucks are in sight. |
A nice espresso and
a few cookies made in Italy. The pastries and sweets are most tempting. |
Delicious! |

We found new
interesting views every minute. Too bad we did not have three months
instead of three weeks in Italy. |
Viareggio
By the beach in Viareggio, very warm indeed. Not so many
Italian car makes there,

Torre
di Lago
Under the palms at Torre di Lago and the Villa di
Puccini. This is close to Viareggio.

|
Pisa
In Pisa, there is a leaning tower. One of the regular
places for any tourist to see. I was car-sitting while the others went for
a quick view. |
Molazzana
We went to the manual car-wash and it was really fun to
see the crew taking care of our Spiders. |
The result was OK,
right! |
|
|
|
We had our own
parking outside the Rusticco Sara . . . |
It is always fun to
drive among the hills in the sun. Here Thomas is speeding and revving. |
