Our team spoke this morning at the District Congress in front of the representative of the RI president, District 2040 Governor, Our governor, Ron Richards, and 500? other Rotarians. Everyone was very impressed. We even got compliments from those who heard us the first week. Either our italian has improved or our confidence. After we finished, the team that came to Florida shared their pictures. It was a very nice morning.
Now the team is out in the park at Monza with the Italian team. A king 200 years ago set aside a huge track of land for his palace and gardens. It is like Central Park in Monza. The area also contains the Monza track. Yesterday we had a chance to drive the new Fiat Eco-2 around the track. It was fun (even though we did not clear 200 miles per hour!)
Last night Piermarco and I (both GSE team leaders) joined the District Governor and 30 of his special guests (PDGs, family, etc) for dinner at a residence that is used now for catering. It was memorable with the formal setting and the speeches.
In the morning (Monday), we move into Milano. We will park the rental van and take the train everywhere. Lucianno has arranged some exciting vocational visits on Thursday as well as all the signficiant sights. Ciao!
