Town Hill at Bergamo
written by misskhali on November 26th, 2008 (0 votes)

During my last Easter holidays I was in Torino with my Champi. The last week end we went to a slope style contest (the Nissan Town hill) in Bergamo.
I do not ride a bicycle and I didn’t have my DSLR to shoot like crazy all these guys doing mad jumps with their bikes. I just had the Champi’s Nikon F65, which is great, but I only had two black and white rolls.

So I wandered in the old town which is really nice. Churches, cobblestone streets, cloisters, etc. The sun was shining so I didn’t quit my sunglasses and get only my nose tanned (my sunglasses are really big). I went also to the new city which is down the hill, but I couldn’t find the galleria d’arte moderna, so I decided to go back up to the slope style site.
As I was tired of walking, I wanted to get on the funicular… but it was closed!

When I’m in a town I don’t know I really like to get in every museum or outstanding building I pass by. So I went to the natural history museum and an exhibition of Tibetan artwork. Later in the afternoon, Champi and I had an Italian ice cream in the front of the public library of the town, and then Champi went back to his bicycle and let me alone…
