On the Road Again!

If only.... If it wasn't for Covid-19 today we would be heading for Bologna from Lucca.  I haven't been since 1986 and it would have been nice to go when all the universities were closed and the city a little quieter. The hotel not the grandest but it is one overnight stop..... Bologna was one of the most expensive cities for hotels on the entire trip. But we are at home in Kent instead.

Day 9 has changed. It was formerly the day we drove up from Lucca to Como.  I wanted to squeeze in a trip to Bologna. So I did. The journey is only around 85 miles toll-free. The hotel is walking distance to the centre and the station. This means that I had to shuffle the proceeding stops on a day. As I found out previously, the booking assistant at booking.com couldn't do a change of date for Como. So to add a day meant cancelling all the stays and rebooking them a day later! I was able to sort out Como. Although on the booking site there were only two rooms left. Booked. Day 10 will be the drive up from Bologna to Como. I had planned to squeeze in a visit to the Moto Guzzi museum but it is closed all off August from the 3rd onwards!  Instead there is Modena.  The Enzo Ferrari Casa and Museum The Panini car museum The Stanguellini car museum The Maserati Show Room And a little further away, Lamborghini. So many supercars! What had been Day 11 has become Day 12. I ha...
