We made it to Bergamo. Rosa Maria met us at the train station, took us on the funicula up to the ancient walled city, showed us around, and then took us to a great restaurant.

We walked back down in a drizzling rain. She brought us out to her home outside Bergamo. After our big lunch, we had a simple, but VERY delicious, spinach soup, cheese, and bread.

They are forecasting 100% chance of rain, so it may be a pretty laid-back day.
