Marjorie in Aosta254 viewsWe went up into the Vale of Aosta on our way back to Malpensa Airport in Milan. Marjorie saw some cute pyjamas in this store window, so I took her picture window-shopping. (The store was, of course, closed for three hours for lunch.)

Me Taking A Photo of My Puffy Pants241 viewsI'd put on my Northern Face down-insulated pants and my foot cast and it was all quite funny. I tried to take a photo of the stylish combination using a mirror in our hotel room. I think the look on Marjorie's face is funny -- sort of quiet resignation.

Japanese Speed Skating Coach234 viewsThese are his hands as the skaters performed at the 500m Men's Speed Skating Championship, Oval Lingotto, February 13 2006. I was surprised at how hard he was squeezing his finger. Ouch!

Steps Down - Stadio Olimpico227 viewsNo handrail for stability. This was taken from our row, looking down (note the large curtain that blocked our view). Another disabled spectator is helped down from her seat. I had to wait until most people had left, and then went down the stairs one at a time. It was pretty awful.
