Thursday 15 August 2013 - Como



Lyn and Chris picked us up about 10.45 am and we went for a drive to Varese to find the rowing course.  It was very difficult and we were not able to find the place Terry was looking for.

We then drove to Foxtown in Switzerland, which is a very upmarket DFO type shopping centre.  We didn’t have much time but I was very pleased to find a shirt and a tie for Mark and Terry bought some very good wet weather gear to wear when it’s raining while he’s coaching.  There were so many shops.

We drove back to Como and experienced some problems with our GPS navigational aid which Chris and Lyn had nicknamed “Victoria”.  She took us around in circles as we tried to re-enter Italy, but eventually we figured it out without Victoria’s help and crossed the border without any problem.

Sharney, Terry and I had dinner in the Duomo Square for our last night in Como.  We enjoyed our meal and watched the “passing parade” in front of the cathedral.
