Post by: parrish on May 29, 2009, 09:00:19 PM After 3 days driving we spent the first day in Turin 'Driving' but what a drive, up into the hillls to lake Maggoire? i think i spelt that right, up and around the hills for a few spurts along winding mountain roads.
Didnt get back to the hotel until 23:30 ;D Then up at 06:30 to head off to the pinacle of the trip, a visit to the FIAT factory, a drive around the famous test track and a tour of the factory followed by lunch at the Mirafiori Village ;D There are more details that i can rememeber im sure Theo (My Chauffeur) will write more on the other thread just as soon as he gets a chance. Off to a car museum tomorrow so must get to bed ;D I didnt bring my down load leads so unfortunately cannot down load the pictures and videos that i have until i get back to Spain next week.

Also visited a motor museum and a Basilica! needless to say they were not both in the same place. Unfortunately Dawn and i are off to Monte Carlo tomorrow so will not be joining the days activities. We have had a wonderfull time and have met some new friends whom we hope to see again some time in the future. Thanks to Theo and Simon for allowing me and Dawn to ride shot gun, next time maybe it will be our turn. For now 'Ciao and ill post pictures when i get back home Steve & Dawn Title: Re: On our way!
