Easter Holidays

[Saturday 11th - Monday 13th April 2009]

Easter is the kind of holiday that I never manage to pinpoint on the calendar, for two main reasons.

The first is that I do not believe in God and therefore I have never had any interest whatsoever in understanding why it changed every year.

The second is that I actually quite like to dwell in my ignorance as I only realize that I am going to have a free Monday when it's almost Easter and it feels a bit like a "bonus day".

Following the "last minute" feeling to this festivity, on Friday afternoon I decided to go and watch Fiorentina's match at the stadium the following day together with a colleague of mine. The match was quite good, we won (and that makes it good of course!) and the weather was lovely, sunny but not too hot.

In the evening a spot of cinema (this time we went for Punyo the new movie from Myazaki).

Easter Sunday was spent at my dad's house for a traditional lunch, the whole meal was quite great and we also met some relatives of my father's wife that were quite nice people, so all in all the afternoon went pretty nicely and we were back home in time for dinner and some TV.

I have also started my pre-surgery training, to my surprise the whole thing is bloody hard as it's almost 6 months now that I am not doing physical activity. I guess that it's quite normal, but still I cannot hide the uneasy feeling of having to go again to the hospital to be cut up by a surgeon... Oh well, I guess that in 1 month's time I will not think about it anymore and I will enjoy the possibility of doing sport again...

Nothing more to report, on Sunday morning we watched the traditional explosion of the chart in Piazza Duomo in Florence which was quite good and reminded me of how good is this city with all its traditions and history... :P

Hi Lox.
Remember I told you I would come and pay you a visit in Florence this coming summer. Well, it'll have to be posponed once more. Christelle will give birth to yet another boy by the end of June.
Don't know if I mentioned it earlier. If not, well, now you know.
