I'm here!!!

HOORAY!! It was tough but im here. My plane was late in which gave me little time to go and find John, (who isn't American as it turns out). I waited for one Amsterdam flight to get in...not that one, so I had to run over to terminal 1 on a hot bus full of school children to find him...This terminal seemed to be another country to the other one and 50 times larger... anyway I found him! Then we rented a Panda and set off for Turin. I have never driven on that side of the road and John hasnt driven a stick in 25 years...It was a jerky little journey.

We proceeded to Turin...and to get massivley lost. I was not very relaxed at this point to say the least. After buying a map, two sets of asking directions and 2 hours we made the studio and the meeting on time at 3pm. Then we had to check into the hotel, which was back into town, and we took a wrong turn again but no biggy. The hotel aint big but it is cool...Pics to follow. Its called the hotel Lancaster (funny). After a needed shower and an un-packing we went out exploring (what we hadnt already seen by driving around for 2 hours) had a beer or two then went for a pizza, very nice it was too. I then had to snooze I'd had 3.5 hours sleep in around 40! Plus I was fuuuullll of pizza!

Update for first day coming later today.
