Saturday was parade day.  Sigrid was riding pillion, which some theorise was related to the partying the night before….

Thanks to an extremely long queue, we didn’t even get a coffee at the start of the parade. At the end, the queue on the stall was extremely long so we went to the nearest coffee shop.  Once there we met a fellow Ulyssian and an American Tennis player who was at the US air force based in Italy, just to play tennis a and win trophies. Went back to the Ulysses speeches and returned home after they were finished. We spent a lot of money on me that last day… I got new boots (the old ones where leaking through the sole during the last rain and started to crack on the top) and a pair of gloves (the old one had some air con features, a long hole on the palm and 3 smaller ones on the top of the hand).
