With my hair newly washed and my body layered up against the chill, I was ready to set out to conquer Torino--when I was hit by a nasty bout of traveler's diarrhea. Ugh. I'm ok. I took some meds and I have bottled water to drink. I think the problem was that I had tea made with microwaved water that probably didn't boil properly. I don't want to give the idea that water in Europe is unsafe; it's just incompatible with my fragile and elderly digestion.

If there was a day to be laid up, this one wasn't bad. It was coldish and drizzly. The weather will be better tomorrow.

Ciao for Now
