Guess who I met today?
OK, they're not famous people to the world, but to my world of wonder caravan, I just wanted to be sure that Nigel and Ann of Sydney, Australia and Mindy and Vinny of San Diego know that I truly enjoyed my time talking to them on Wednesday day and into the evening, respectively, as we were all at Cesana Pariol, the site of Wednesday's two-man luge competition.
I met Nigel and Ann shortly after getting off a train at Oulx which is the point place to then pick up a shuttle bus to Cesana. I was asking for help in getting to the right bus when Nigel and Ann, needing the same information, became a pair of very nice, intelligent and interesting people. They've also stopped to eat oranges in Bakersfield it so happens once I mentioned that I am from California and the next obvious question is where in California?
As for Mindy and Vinny, I met them at the start of the luge event and again near the end of the event. It turns out Mindy and Vinny, who have been married for three years but have done their fair share of overseas travel, adopted their cat, Mochi, from Bakersfield.
Talk about a small world. Was I supposed to be at the luge event today Adrian or what?
More to follow ... on the luge happenings anyway.
