When we left the airport we got into a van and a car and headed north to Domodossola. The ride took about an hour at the speeds we were traveling (130 km/hr) but I have no idea how long it would have taken us. Driving is definitely different here, and although we saw noone driving on the sidewalk, it was kind of like a controlled chaos. Motorcycles would drive down the center of the 2 lanes of traffic and weave in and out, and one guy in particular blew passed us like we were standing still. It was exciting and beautiful as we drove towards the Alps. When we arrived at Scott and Sharon’s house we were greeted at the doorway by Sharon and most of Fil’s family. They were very excited and very nice. They made us feel very welcome, like part of the family. Then we all sat at the longest table I have ever seen and had dinner. We had some type of pasta as a starter. It was soo good! As we ate the conversation flowed around the table. We just sat and enjoyed the company of the Italian believers. We then had the main course of pork roast, salad and potatoes. Everything tasted so good. We visited with them through dessert which was an American flag cake that Sharon made. By the time we finished dinner and fell into bed it was after midnight.
