From Houston to Como - November 1,
2001
Leaving Houston on November 1st.
Flying over Dallas
It's only been a couple of hours, and I'm already sleeping. If
I only knew what was coming...
Always make sure your bags are being handled with care!
After the "presumed terrorist" adventure, we're finally
leaving Dallas with just 4 hours delay.
Sunset over Europe the next morning
Leaving Zurich airport
Dad
Mom
The odd couple once again captured on camera
Still kicking.
Swiss chalets
A little rest stop in San Bernardino
On the way to the camping place
Climbin up the mountain, children
Our little "cabin" and a furry guest
Dad at the front door
peeking inside
Mom in the kitchen/den
Again, the other side of the kitchen.
looking into the bedrooms
the dining table in the kitchen
From the bedroom looking out
The master bed
The guest's section
And, when nature calls, off we go to the restrooms.
The side of the cabin
And the back
On our way back to Como
Just about one hour away
Swiss Alps
Pretty Valleys
It's fall again
Pretty colors in the backyard
The main gate with the garage door on the right (looking east)
Looking south from the terrace
Typical November sunset (west)
Another view (west) from the house
What a mess!!! Just got home and unpacking
What a mess!!! Main view of the kitchen
Kitchen... floor!
What's left of the lab
No comment
Even I sound well compared to the out-of-tune piano!!!
Would you guess? McCrap
near Billy's home at the outskirts of Milan
My "cats", even if one looks like a bear cubr and the
other like it just got out of a horror movie...
Here's the bear cub. Looks mean but he's the sweetest thing (when
he's not clawing you as a sign of affection!)
That's what the cat dragged home!
Silvia's new kitten. Ask her about sleeping at night!!!
Piazza San Fedele, Como
Piazza San Fedele, Como
The back side of Piazza San Fedele
Again, Piazza San Fedele
Pigeons in Piazza San Fedele
The Duomo and city walls
A glance at Brunate
The lake on a clear day
Does this look familiar?
Fall in the park around the lake
Who said I was dieting? Fat alarm!!!
Cesi, Franco, Grandma Antonietta and Silvia.
At last, here's Billy sporting as usual a perfect tan
