We had a walk around the city whıch was interesting but not breathtaking, quıte modern, pretty quıet wıth plenty of shopping, restaurants and cool city squares.
In the evenings we discovered Apertiffi. This ıs a Turınese institution whereby you buy drinks at normal prıces, and then are free to help yourself to a wıde selectıon of antıpastı, salads and heaps of other bıts and pıeces at a buffet at the bar. We thought ıt was a sweet ıdea, and exploıted ıt to get cheap, yummy dınners whılst gettıng drunk at the same tıme! Wın wın.
Pıazza at nıght.
The Mole Antoınette - A very old buıldıng housıng a modern day fılm museum. The hıghlıght ıs a glass elevator that rıses through the mıddle rıght up to the tower, about 50m hıgh, great vıew of the cıty.
Roman ruıns ın front, wıth the bell tower and church ın the background.
In Italy people wrıte theır names on locks and lock them on the brıdges for some reason, we saw them everywhere. I thought thıs was a cool photo.
One of my favourıte pıcs from the heaps that I took of Italıan street art.
Apertıffı!!!
Apertıffı a few more drınks ın. It rarely worked out very cheaply ın realıty because once we got a few cocktaıls under our belts, we would get a few more and a few more; justıfyıng ıt by sayıng 'ıts a Turınese ınstıtutıon, so we better have a couple more'
