Frimpong in Torino - by Bruna K.

Torino (Turin) is a major industrial city as well as a business and cultural center
in northwest Italy, capital of the Piedmont region,
located mainly on the west bank of the Po River.
Turin was the host of the 2006 Winter Olympics.
So maybe you are more familiar with this town already.

I'm here, invited by Bruna K.
Who will be my gentle hostess during all my stay
and will take all the pictures to report
my experiences and adventures in this beautiful town.

I'm arrived in Torino...Where are the red carpet and the band???	Mrs. Bruna? I'm Frimpong...	Rainy Northern Italy...	Spaghetti
Oh, yes I need an early night!	Exploring Torino...Umberto I Bridge	Tourist information	By the river Po...
View from the top of Cappuccini Mount	Bruna, I have some pangs of hunger…	Torino Townhall	Getting closer to the Mayor's office...
Winter Universiade 2007 in Torino	I might buy myself a FIAT car...	Nothing better than a good "espresso" to start a new day!	Juventus F.C.
Trying to find my orientation...	A break at a cafe table!	At the entry of Medieval Village...	Bruna knows how to treat a guest!
Morning shower...	The Royal Palace	The Royal Palace of Torino	Carignano Palace
The most ancient restaurant in Torino!	It's also the most expensive restaurant in town...	I want to be lucky, so I must rub Colombus' finger!	Policemen are very friendly in Torino....
I need cash for shopping...	"Gioielleria Vinesia dal 1947"	A good watch for a travelling bear instead?	View from the bridge....
Girls on the bridge....	On the top of the church stairway	I feel romantic as sunset appraoches...	Ohhhh! My wish was granted!
Ok, girls, I'll invite both of you for dinner...	Frimpong & Bruna play cards...	Monday walk over Piazza Solferino	Ice ring in Piazza Solferino
Frimpong and Pietro Micca	Posing by an ancient big gun...	Watching TV	I love artichokes!
Broccoli? Cauliflower?	But I'm omnivorous, Bruna, not only vegetarian!	At Tino's, the best butcher of the neighbourhood!	Can we have roasted chicken for lunch, Bruna? Please, oh please...
Frimpong the Butler	And now Bruna makes me sweep the floor...	At the theatre...	I'm always ready to help...
Congratulating one of the artists	Porte Palatine	At the Northern Roman gates	Frimpong and Mole Antonelliana

Frimpong & Bruna are quite a pair! I can't remember ever giggling so much at any PBase gallery...or learning as much. Frimpong, would you ask Bruna if she was a teacher? If not, she sure is now! She is also an EXCELLENT photographer who has taken to this like...well, like a bear takes to honey. Brava to all concerned! BIG vote!!!
