A casa di Viola
July 4, 2015 // Posted in friends, Lorenzo | No Comments
Lorenzo e Viola[/caption]Con un po’ di ritardo ecco il post relativo a domenica scorsa. Giornata calda (non come oggi, ma pur sempre calda), ma trascorsa con la piacevole compagnia di Viola e Sokratis (compagni d’asilo di Lorenzo) e i rispettivi genitori. E con l’indiscutibile beneficio della bellissima piscinetta piazzata nel magico cortile di casa di Viola. Grazie!!!
With a bit of delay, here there is the post about last Sunday. We went at Viola’s place together with Sokratis living a kind of small kindergarden experience. Carlo and Cristina (Viola’s parents) were very kind, and we really enjoyed the small swimming poll placed in the magic courtyard of Viola’s place. Thanks a lot!!!

Ultimo giorno d’asilo…
July 4, 2015 // Posted in Lorenzo | No Comments
Ormai siamo agli sgoccioli. Lorenzo ha cominciato a frequentare l’asilo nido Rodari da lattante,quando aveva circa 5 mesi. L’inizio e’ stato complicato, con pianti disperati. Ma qui abbiamo trovato un ambiente sereno e accogliente, educatrici davvero speciali e amicizie profonde. Dopo i primi tentennamenti Lorenzo si e’ progressivamente innamorato dell’asilo, di tanti suoi amici, delle sue maestre. E questi tre anni sono volati lasciandoci il ricordo di un’esperienza fantastica. E se Lorenzo, pur nella sua monelleria di bambino tre-enne, e’ un bambino davvero speciale, lo dobbiamo anche a Graziella, Anna, Marta e Linda. Grazie!!! E a settembre si riparte con Beatrice!!!
After three years the kindergarden experience for Lorenzo is ending. This is the last month. It was a great experience for him and for us, and although the beginning was very hard, everything went fine. And we have to thank Graziella, Anna, Marta and Linda! They teached a lot of things to Lorenzo!!!! And Lorenzo enjoyed to stay with them and all the amazing friends he met.

Anna e Matteo

Per noi e’ festa grande quando riusciamo a vedere qualcuno della famiglia Brambilla. Gia’, perche’ i Brambilla in questione (Marco, Anna e Matteo) sono un po’ giramondo e dopo il periodo francese, sono ormai rientrati nella meravigliosa (ma assetata) California. Cosi’, in attesa di vedere Marco (passera’ di qui a luglio) ci siamo concessi un aperitivo con Anna e Matteo (di passaggio da Pavia, sulla strada del mare). E come sempre, abbiamo passato bei momnenti assieme. E grazie per tutti i regali!!!
When we can meet someone of the Brambilla family, here we are very happy. But it is not easy to meet them, because they often are far away. Now they are back to California, but hopefully, during summer time, they will stop few days here around. Last Wednesday we shared a nice happy hour with Anna and Matteo, and as always happens, we were very happy with them. And thanks for all the gift you brought to us!!!

Caffe’ shakerato
June 29, 2015 // Posted in home | No Comments
I primi caldi arrivano, e qui, non potendo rinunciare all’irrinunciabile caffe’ (tra l’altro abbiamo da poco comprato una nuova macchina espresso decisamente cool, la De Longhi E680), ecco che ci divertiamo a preparare e gustare un buon caffe’ shakerato, con l’aiuto di un barman davvero speciale, il piccolo Lorenzo.
Summer time is coming, so sometimes we go for an iced coffee. Lorenzo is very happy to help us in its preparation. And the coffee, thanks also to the new espresso coffee machine, is very good.

Ultimo giorno di maternita’
June 21, 2015 // Posted in family | No Comments
Domani, dopo 7 mesi, Silvia ritorna al lavoro, e smette di fare la mamma a tempo pieno della piccola Beatrice. Ci sara’ qualche trauma da superare, qualche assestamento negli incroci di baby sitter, ma riusciremo comunque a trovare un buon equilibrio, almeno ci speriamo. E’ comunque un giorno importante, e cosi’ stamattina, per festeggiare, ci siamo concessi una buona colazione in piazza a Pavia. Beatrice nella foto si vede solo parzialmente, ma garantiamo che sta benone.
Tomorrow Silvia will go back to her work life, after 7 months. The transition from full time mom to worker mom will not be easy. Beatrice is only six months old, but with the help of some good baby sitter, at least till September, when Beatrice will go to the nursery, we hope we will be able to manage both Lorenzo and Beatrice (and the job too). Let’s cross our fingers. To celebrate, this morning we went our for a nice breakfast in town.

Verde pubblico
June 16, 2015 // Posted in Pavia | No Comments
La nuova (si fa per dire) Giunta si sta impegnando per riuscire nell’impossibile, ovverosia far rimpiangere, per certi aspetti, la precedente… Molti sono gli aspetti che lasciano perplessi, ma anche se non e’ il piu’ importante, emblematica e’ la gestione del verde pubblico. Al di la’ dei problemi pratici incontrati (gare di appalto andate deserte), il dato di fatto e’ che pare di vivere in una giungla, ancorche’ urbana. Sono certo altri i problemi veri di questa citta’, e non si chiede certo di avere prati rasati quotidianamente, e assenza di infestanti, ma ovunque ci si giri, si constata uno stato di abbandono. Il che, elettoralmente parlando, e’ una cosa stupida, perche’ si nota subito e certo la situazione non rende i cittadini molto felici (soprattutto alla luce delle aliquote sempre massime delle tassi comunali).
Pavia, in the last months, looks like an urban jungle. The new administration is not performing well, and although the public green is not the most important thing we care about, the situation about that is really disappointing. Let’s see what will happen in the future, but sacchibelli’s are a bit skeptic…

Tarzan?

Oggi pomeriggio siamo andati al parco della Darsena per la festa di compleanno di Anna. Faceva un po’ caldo, ma tutto sommato l’ombra delle piante ci ha evitato di scioglierci. I bimbi al solito si sono scatenati, e Lorenzo ha cominciato ad arrampicarsi sugli alberi. Dovremo preoccuparci?
Today we went at “Parco della Darsena” to join Anna’s party. It was very hot, but we survived, although Lorenzo ran a lot, and started to climb on the trees. Do you think we have to be worried?

A Poggio Ferrato

Quasi tre anni fa eravamo stati a Poggio a trovare Luca e Chiara. Anna, allora, aveva un anno o poco piu’. Lorenzo due mesetti abbondanti (vedi qui). Un po’ di tempo e’ passato… Di cose ne sono successe. Ma di certo Anna e Lorenzo sono cresciuti tantissimo e sono diventati irresistibili monelli. E’ arrivata Beatrice, nel frattempo, e chissa’…Grazie per il bel pomeriggio trascorso assieme. E grazie anche per averci fatto scoprire gli ottimi formaggi di capra di Pizzocorno.
After three years we were back at Luca’s house in Poggio Ferrato. Here we spent a lovely afternoon all together, and it was amazing to see how both Anna and Lorenzo grew up. Moreover, the little Beatrice is present now and in the future some good news will arrive from Luca and Chiara too. Thanks for everything, and also for bringing us to Pizzogorno to taste and buy some amazing goat cheese.

Una serata social
May 27, 2015 // Posted in friends | 1 Comment
Era da un po’ che, pur essendo Beatrice molto brava e dolce, e pur essendo Lorenzo ormai un ometto, non trascorrevamo una sera in compagnia di amici. Il timore di rompere i ritmi, sempre delicati, dei due marmocchi, in particolare di Beatrice, ci ha frenato un po’. Ma questa sera abbiamo voluto provare, e abbiamo goduto della compagnia, oltre che di Antonio e Maurizio, anche di zio Paolo e zia Lulu’. Che dire, una serata davvero speciale… Grazie!!!
After a while Sacchibelli come back to their social life. This evening we were just planning to eat pizza together with Antonio and Maurizio; but then also Paolo and Lulu’ joined us, and this made the dinner a special and social event. Thanks a lot to all of you!!!

Il fascino dei pompieri
May 23, 2015 // Posted in Lorenzo | No Comments
We recently visited Pompieropoli, and Lorenzo was very excited. But this morning we met our friend firefighter Lorenzo in front of the station, and he invited us to try the hook-and-latter, also speaking at the radio…. Thanks a lot firefighter Lorenzo…
