Great Guests!....

Lynn and Susan have come to Alessandria for a visit. They are our very close Seattle friends who have moved to Landstuhl, Germany to work and just enjoy life. We have spent the weekend talking, talking, talking, laughing, laughing, laughing. It's been wonderful!

Not much to describe here....
Wandering the streets of Alessandria....

Of course, we had to go to the cemetery...

Always new sights....The gentleman's picture at the top is surrounded by a crown of thorns...we were not sure what that means....for him....

Hard to tell, I know, but this is Pope John XXIII.....in a bubble.

Then, on to lighter events. Alessandria had an antique car show...."See, t h e USA, in your Chevrolet! America is ......" la la la la de la.....
Kim has fond memories of this car. Her father bought one years ago and thought the family of 5 would fit with no problems....
Fiat is the best! On many levels. Trust me, America.
Kim says that this is what the SS drove in movies....scary thought.

Timeless and classy....
We spied this grafitti...Remember the immigration issues? This say something like: "We are continuing to arrive...." aka, "we are here to stay...".
Susan stopped to light a candle...
because earlier she was caught trying to break into an old church....

We celebrated her release with a wonderful dinner. Susan treated us and it was a terrific gift.
