Fantastic experiencies in Liguria and Piemonte

I only make a short notice about our(10 persons)five days trip to Italy last week.
Genova was a superinteresting city on a narrow coastline, partly mediaeval town with tiny streets but big height differencies.
Torino was just an opposite one as former capital. Bright avenues with massive royal palacies at wide piazzas with the horsemen statues of their famous heroes.
But the best was not the beautiful Piemonte country side, after many cathedrals and museums in cities, not even the great local food. But the excellent wines at the cellars of Marchesi di Barolo. Tasting these superior rosso's and bianco's with excellent parmesan or some delicate bread was awesome. With a good company I had a great Week.

My trip plans in near future

I have been staying in Helsinki almost three(!) months, so it's time to seek new places to conquer. Later today I will join by invitation of an Italian travel agency, free of any charge, a group of ten Finns.We'll fly to Milan in Italy, and shall study Genova and Torino plus some other smaller towns in Piemonte area for five days.
On November 17. I am on my way to Malaga, Spain to start from there just next day a 16 days cruise to Bridgetown, Barbados. During the cruise we shall have a few stops at various harbours. But only three of those, Funchal,Domenica and St.Kitts are new for me. After the cruise I will have a six days stay at Barbados, being back home on December 11. One month later January 15. I'll back in Caribean, now in Cuba with some friends for 12 days.
