My last night in Torino

Today I made myself be productive and I got up and out of the house by 10:30. I went to the large open air market and looked around and then headed down many cobble stone streets looking at the old buildings. Apparently Mondays are very dead and being as it is two days before August vacation, the city is really dead. Most shops were not open so I gave up my fight and went back to the apartment. I was suppose to meet with my American friends at 5:15 but as I was leaving I got a terrible nose bleed and couldn't meet with them until 6:15. But once we met up we did a little shopping and then went to a terrific restaurant for a last pasta dinner. The food was good and after eating we walked around some more and of course finished the evening with gelato. They walked me home and we said our goodbyes and now it is time for my last night's sleep in Torino. (till Sept anyway)

One side note: While I was walking today in the city I saw the funniest thing.....a tour but with horns. The city's mascot is the torro or bull so the bus was suppose to be a gaint bull!! It made me smile
