Looking North
You can see what a gray day it is, but you can also see how beautiful this area is. As you can see from the photos, we are not in the city!
I can't get the camera chip to work from Rosa Maria's computer, so be sure to look at the blog in a few days for photos from here. We encountered a shepherd moving his sheep from up in the hills down to the valley and passing through Prada Lungo where we are right now. He had a couple mules with him with saddle bags that contained some new born sheep that needed to hitchhike with the mule during the long march from one place to another. When he went out on the road, the dogs got a work out keeping them all together. Anyway, be sure to check back. It was quite a show! Rosa Maria asked him a lot of questions, which she said she felt more comfortable doing since she was asking for her "American friends." She said she thought the shepherd was more willing to share than if she had been asking for herself. Anyway, be sure to check back.

Miss the photos
Hope the chip works soon, the pictures are almost as good as being there. Has Rosa commented on the weather, is this average for Bergamo at this time of year?
