vacation

Changing things up a bit, to get some final enjoyment out of my trip. Its kind of nice to have no stress of bike racing/training/results and simply appreciate where you are. Slow things down and take a look around. I'm back on the food enjoyment train, picking out fun and fresh bits to try. I've recently rediscovered my old love of artichokes, apparently they are a Mediterranean specialty. This morning we've managed to find a deal at a little place in Dolceaqua, so are boarding a train for an overnight trip into Italia. A little exploring never did anyone any harm. Plus, I need no excuse to sample some more fine Italian coffees. I have recently had this bad feeling that I may freeze upon return to Ottawa. So if my mother is reading this, maybe start digging out the winter gear?
