Tutti In Bici a Pavia!



I had such a great weekend!  I rode my bike for 43 miles, with two friends from the church youth group, to Pavia.  Then, we had two families over for a delicious dinner of roasted beef and special cheeses, and on Sunday we celebrated the birthday of their cousin in the countryside.  Next weekend is going to be even busier!


This is Francesco and Marta. Everyone from the youth group has basically grown up together and is like one family. They all have welcomed me so warmly. I am lucky to have met them!

And off we go!

Fishermen lined up along the creek on an early Saturday morning

An unexpectedly charming city

It was the first visit to Pavia, for us all!
