The Overnight Serena Express never stops - got to Barcelona after a 14 hours drive, stopping for lunch to visit our Spanish/Italian friends. Thanks to Bea, Piero and Ricard for the jamon break!
On to Madrid, final stop for tonight R&R.

Ready Set GOOOOOO!
Just a few hours left, with the usual last-minute packing, heated debates over what to bring (one case of Grappa or one case of pasta?), minor glitches like jammed side windows and loose nuts, but that's well within the norm.
Andrea, Renato, a hide-and-seek Loris and Dino are ready to leaaaaaaave!

One week to go
This year we took a Zen-like approach to the entire trip.
Main rule this time around has been less-is-better, so no more overspending on tune-up, no more over planning, and zero overloading. Spare parts? Tools? Just a set of spanners, one screwdriver, couple of spark plugs and one extra tyre.
The rest, we are sure, will be easily available along the way.
But we could not leave without good-luck charms!
