“We’re in Italy now. I’m sitting in the corner of a field and it’s chilly. Grandpa got me to put down the legs of the caravan and now they’re having cups of tea so I’ve been for a look round.We reached the border up in the mountains after lunch. The rocks on the road near the checkpoint were wrapped up in wire netting to stop them rolling down on us. There were all these guards in very smart uniforms and a Swiss flag on one side and an Italian flag on the other. They looked at our passports and ...nodded very solemnly at us. I think they had guns.One we’d driven off Grandpa cheered and said, ‘Bella Italia! Now this is more like it!’ Ever since we’ve been in Italy he’s been very chirpy.We came down the mountains with our ears popping and stopped at ‘cup of tea time’ as Brenda calls it – in this field. It had the little camping sign pointing to it, but Grandpa says it looks like a gold-panning town after the gold has run out. There are two other caravans and no one in them.MoreLessRead More Read Less
