Pavia Fantasy.

Day 25.

Today was a national holiday in Italy so we didn't have to work . As a result I slept in until 11:30! When I finally got up I met the usual lie-in conundrum - do I have breakfast now or do I wait until lunch? I waited half an hour or so then had a lunch of crisps, Nutella on toast and tinned fruit. I then spent time looking at accordion-related stuff on the internet and playing the accordion.
At 2:30 I went to Pavia with Simone, Erica and some of their friends to "Pavia Fantasy", an event held in Pavia castle where there were stalls relating to Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones and more. Lots of people were dressed up, mainly in Medieval costumes, and there were drinks stalls selling ancient-recipe beers and liqueurs.
Afterwards we went to Pavia - a lovely town with lots of attractive, historical buildings. We had ice cream and walked around the town before heading back to the car.
We when arrived back in Stradella we found an open bar and went in for drinks and aperitivi. Another 10 friends joined us and we stayed for about an hour and a half. When I got home I made a small plate of spaghetti with tomatoes followed by a Creme Egg.

Back to work tomorrow. The weather has been overcast again today; I hope it brightens up again soon.

Alla prossima x
