G10 Photos

Finally was able to get the SD reader today. We went to Gigli, a big shopping mall in Prato. Today is officially the start of summer vacation for the students and judging from how crowded Gigli was, it seems like the entire student population of Tuscany was there.

These are the photos from the G10 from Day 1 to Day 10 taken mostly by Angel. She's done a heck of a job documenting our trip. Taking photos of just about anything. Like a true photojournalist...

The day we arrived. This at the cafe in Lamporechio.


On our way to Lido for the Giro d' Italia.

The Napoli-owned cafe'. Probably the best cappuccino I will ever have.


Cappuccino never looked this good.


The cafe' is frequented by amateur and pro-cyclists such as these two taking a break from their early morning ride.

While walking home from the park, we spotted this lady filling his containers with water from an old-school well.

Taking a break from our long walk to St. Peter's Square...what better way to beat the heat but with some gelato..


Yes, parking is very difficult in Rome..


We set the camera on a 10 sec timer mode but just before the shutter clicked, the strong wind almost blew the camera to the concrete floor..thus, the photo..


A German couple saw us and offered to take this photo..
