Cena con Fede, Ali e Filippo
August 31, 2017 // Posted in friends | No Comments
We did some reconstruction job at our apartment, and we have not finished yet… However, in this period, there is Fede available here in Pavia, and we invited her for a dinner. Ali and Fil, together whith their lovely Matilde, joined us. Although Lorenzo and Beatrice, very tired, were a bit noisy, we spent a lovely evening. See you soon dear Fede, and good luck for your experience in France.
Pedalando per Milano

Yesterday there was a dinner group, at Blue, Blue, Blue Restaurant, to say goodbye to a colleague, Jun Lei moving to The Netherlands. It was a nice event, because it was the first social event with the new colleagues at the new company, for the adult male component of sacchibelli family. And as a side effect, he had the opportunity to ride his bicycle through the streets of Milano: a very nice experience, safe enough mainly because we still are in August, and Milano is not so crowded.

Marcello, il bagnino

To come back to Cattolica, after more than 30 years, has been very emotional. I have a lot of good memories about my holiday seasons, when I was a baby. Almost everything changed: the hotel where I used to stay is still existing, but managed by new people. But something didn’t change. At “Bagni 76” the ones that I remember as “Bagni Marcello & Tina” I met Marcello, the lifeguard, more than 90 years old, but still present on the beach, looking at the sea. To met him again has been a special moment for me, a nostalgic moment.
Cattolica 2017
August 21, 2017 // Posted in Travels | No Comments
This year we arrived at the summer season a bit tired, mainly because of the job issues we had during the last months. At the end we were able to find new jobs, and to start, in a separate way, new adventures. But the uncertainty and the fact that we have few vacationsavailable, forced us to find an easy solution for the holidays. So, at the end, we found a good solution in Cattolica at Hotel Haiti. For sure Cattolica is not as nice as Senigallia, where we spent the last two summer holidays periods, but it is a great place for babies, full of fun and with a beautiful beach. So at the end, we were happy enough, with the addition of good weather. Moreover we met some interesting people at the hotel and at the beach, and, above all, we enjoyed staying all together for all the period. Let’s hope that next year we will have more time and more energy to plan a vacation in a more exotic place, but we are 100 per 100 satisfied by this year vacations. There is no text enough to fit the best pictures we took, so let add them at the end of the post.

Today we went at Franceschina’s place, to celebrate her second birthday. Lorenzo and Bea had a lot of fun together with little Francesca, but the best moment was when they went inside the tent they have in the garden…
Dopo tanto tempo

The idea of this blog comes from the blog of Alessandro and Emiko, two special friends of us. Ale, in particular, is an “old” friend of the adult male component of sacchibelli family. We shared together a lot of nice and funny experiences, starting from the period in California. Although Ale remained over there, and built his new life in USA, we always feel good friend. Than Ale met Emiko, while here the male component met Silvia. And we felt good friends all together. At the beginning of our blog you can find some post about them (see here, for example) but, surprisingly, we never met together since that day, more than 10 years ago. So, we never met Edo, Lisa and Mara, their cute kids, and they never met Lorenzo and Bea… till today. Yes, today we didn’t loose the opportunity to see them again, during their summer period spent in “Val d’Aosta”. It was amazing to meet them again, to know their lovely kids, to spend a whole day together. It was a day full of emotions, and we already miss all of you. But we are confident that we will meet again in the near future.
Bagno rinnovato

Few weeks ago we posted some picture of our “big” bathroom, that was almost 50 years old (like the condo where we are living). When we bought our apartment we didn’t have enough money to rebuild it, but now time has come, and after a tiring period with our apratment trasnformed in a construction site, we can enjoy the new bathroom…
- Abbattimento di tigli (che hanno almeno 50 anni);
- Riduzione significativa della superficie di un bel parco giochi recentemente ristrutturato dalla stessa amministrazione, con una spesa di 120.000 euro
- Interruzione di una pista ciclabile, con i ciclisti ora costretti a attraversare una pericolosa rotonda
- Aumento della pericolosità degli attraversamenti pedonali
- Complicazione nell’uscita dei mezzi dei Vigili del Fuoco

Che dire, una decisione illuminata. E un voto in meno alle prossime elezioni…
Our local administration decided to build a roundabout at the crossing of viale Campari and viale San Giovannino, very close to where we live. Such a decision looks like very stupid, because the best result that they can achieve is to move the traffic jam from that crossing, to the next one, where there is still a traffic light. Moreover, they are cutting a lot of trees, they are reducing the area of a nice playground, recently restructured, and for sure we will have a lot of additional risks for pedestrians and cyclists, because it is known that roundabout are very dangerous for these categories (see here, here and here. Congratulations for such a stupid decision…
Ultimo pranzo…
