Our Daily Bread


Well, we actually get our daily bread from the panetteria next door to the Coop (pronounced “cwaaap”), but we get everything else, practically, from the Coop.  This is right across the street from Grom.  Danika and Jason are particularly excited here as Mary had just bought them cookies to sustain them for the “field trip” we were about to take.  It was very lightly snowing / raining as we started out our walk.  It was a great walk, down to the Tre Archi down the Corso Cavour. 



We found a running track (Mary is very excited indeed to get out and run) and then, to the kid’s absolute delight, we found the “scala mobile” (escalator).   These took us up, and up, and up some more until we’d reached the Piazza Italia, which is all the way up in town.  Nice.   We even took the scala mobile down one set and found we were really very close to our place.  With some well-chosen side streets we almost avoided taking any stairs at all until we got home (to the 52 steps to our apartment).

Even in the rain, the view from our apartment is wonderful...


Caio, David
