It now seems the red Fiat 127 is mine to use. Drove to Debora's for therapy. In the median strip of her street, vendors set up tents to sell everything; food, clothing, kitchen goods, flowers, etc. Went to a phone booth to find the American Consul address, then drove there, past a whole square full of tents in front of huge buildings more or less labeled "supermarkets." At the Consul, got registered and got visa information (i.e., I don't need any).

I wanted to send a telegram. The PT/Post-Telephone near Debora said it was cheaper after 8:00 PM. Went to the Grosso PT which wasn't open at that time, and then to Cirie where I couldn't even find the PT.

A holiday - Liberation Day. Drove to Claudio's apartment just outside Torino. First had a simple but very good meal with Claudio, his aunt and grandparents. After some therapy, friends came by and I watched them play a game. Then I drove into Torino a few blocks to Debora's for therapy.

Today on my way to Debora's, was stopped by the Vigili Urbani/local police in Borgaro. Apparently it was just a routine check, but there was a bit of discussion over the International Driving Permit. But soon a "buon giorno" and I was on my way.
