Finally headed back after my Palm Sunday weekend trip to Liguria and the French Riviera. Never seen Turin before, so I decided to get a ‘cup of coffee’ (as we say in the American baseball expression) of the place, on my way back home.

I’ve always wanted to see Turin, as I am of Savoyard stock on my father’s side!
