There was the really nice Libyan gentleman and his lovely Indian wife that we met in Firenze when we took a long bus ride on the number 14 around the city. Our friends from Wales who telephoned to check we were OK, and so on. In many ways this trip will be remembered more for the lovely people that we met than the problems with the car. We met a lovely American family in Florence Airport who were travelling to Geneva via Paris. What a pleasant family they were. And then there was the lovely chap on the FlyBE desk in Paris and the ladies in the Airfrance baggage office. One of whom came outside to show us the way to the free bus shuttle. There was the Canadians at Vimy Ridge in France, and all of those that I mentioned in an earlier post.
