At 9:00 tonight I set off for a walk up and over and around the Naviglio Grande zone – The Grand Canal. It was a brisk and breezy 60 degrees out and it felt pretty chilly. But there were still lots of people milling around and the little restaurants were doing well with people cozy inside for appetizers or dinner.
I must say that I seem to have a hard time perfecting the “easy stroll”. I take on the “New York Pace” like a “man on a mission” and hot-foot it as if there’s someone with a stopwatch at the end. That said, I did stop enough times to shoot some photos of the hub-bub, and to browse old Italian books at a seller’s along the way.
