Arrivederci a Cortina today we say goodbye to Cortina, site of 2026 winter Olympics, and the wine journey begins as we move south to Treviso for visits with Prosecco producers and Valpolicella estates.
Yesterday we did Sellaronda circuit and Marmolada, 61 km of downhill skiing, finishing at 4.57pm minutes before 5pm closing of lifts. These are spectacular mountains unlike anything in USA.
Weekend stop in Milano to visit with friends from Toscana and see my first Serie A football match, Inter vs Lecce. 
SomethIng old and something new for Thanksgiving dinner. Old World Nebbiolo for cold antipasto and New World Pinot Nor for the Turkey.
