Our first stop

Having been on a couple of these motor coach tours in the past I knew that European driving laws mandated that bus drivers have to take a 15 minute break every 2-3 hours of driving. I eagerly awaited our first stop. I was getting a bit peckish. Soon enough we pulled into one of the omnipresent Autogrills found along the highway. Inside are extremely clean toilets, very good food, cold drinks and some pretty nice souvenirs. I picked up a bag of Bounty candy bars, a nice big bottle of Orange Fanta and a bag of chips. A healthy Italian lunch. Foolishly I passed up buying some of the salamis, pepperonis and cheeses sold in the little grocery section. I assumed I'd get a chance later in the trip.
