Field Trip to Torino

This is Jordan and Courtney on the way to Torino. We started out early and
some of us were ready to go and explore. All of our explorations are about food. How can it be bad? This is my roomate Irene, she was sleeping behind those glasses. On the way to Torino we stopped at a farm. It was a farm and vineyard, very cool. We explored and had lunch. The food was really good and so were the wines. We tried a new wine with each course. So needless to say we all purchased wine.
We are still on the way to the farm and I snapped these nice shots of Gabrielle and Brian. They did not get far when out they went. I believe they are having a great morning rest. I was so absorbed with, the people and the sceinery I could not sleep. Our history teacher was with us, telling about the places and things to look for. He has so much energy for his subject. I feel I can listen for hours. He is a vet in his other life and speaks english with a Scottish accent. We had another guest, her name is Cindy.
She is from the US and is working on her masters. I think our class is her project. She is also filled with info on the slow food movement. I really enjoy her.

After the farm we went to Eataly. A hugh store where you can get foods from all over Italy. If it is made in Italy it was represented there. Our history teacher helped us pick out cheeses that were from smaller farms and therefore not as pricey, but just as good or better. It was fun having our own food guide.

I had a friend ask about vegetarian food. Well Meridth the Italians eat lots and lots of non meat dishes. Do you eat any cheeses or milk products? If so I could load you up with ideas. Get me your email.

Having fun in Italy, Yvonne
