Here we are in Pavia: yes Alyssa, everything is small!

a nice dinner from nonnaLu

the Bergamo pastries to finish...what a combination!

a fantastic tennis challenge alla Moto, with the young Uni boys beating the injured old boys by a hair, 7-5 at the third!

Nic was sponsored by Mercedes Benz

cugina Luciana happens to be alla Moto, nice coincidence!

a nice morning round for papaTeo at Golf Vigevano

a very nice and tight course

nonnoCla with a good pace of play performance

lunch stop after 9 holes

papaTeo with a great drive in the middle of the trees...

...leading to a nice birdie!

risaie (paddy field) in the background

after a work call, papaTeo finished the night with dinner alla Moto, perfect table spot outside with Majo, Coci, Ricky and Guidone

Paolino Villa joining the party

and Kapo too

finishing the night at Bar Teatro, with Baffo from Brazil!

nonnaLu's garage has 4 generations of tennis rackets, from the 1980's to the 2010's

papaTeo enjoys his runs at Vernavola, like every year

lots of green risaie

with the fattoria in the background

what's up now? We have a pretty referee for this special game

Gio and Nic challenge...

...papaTeo and nonnoCla, with some handicap (0-30 per game)

then Miki comes to Moto

for a fun single game, and an epic point that leaves us both flat!

while Majo offers an appetizer to Nic Gio and Alyssa

to thank him for helping out with the legendary Coci50 movie

Paoletta and Tecla, Cesco's beautiful family!

Miki's full family traditional picture

ready for a pizza?

Pietro and Gio are excited about talking with Nic and Gio

yes Gio, that is what the 'matricole' had to do as initiation

il Duomo di Pavia

look at this table that Miki setup, in front of Duomo!

is Nic still too strong Gio? Try him with your mouse

yeah, Nic is very strong

but Gio is a tough boy, he never gives up and he is an energizer bunny

check out this Oakley app: Miki's friend is VP of operations at Luxottica, try it with your mouse

cheers

Gio, it's supposed to be a pleasant massage!

hide and seek in piazza Duomo: Gio jumps up from the ruins!

after dinner, Gio Nic and Alyssa are joined by the Lo Vetro for the legendary 'affogato alla cioccolata con zabaione da Cesare'

good stuff Nico, isn't it?

while papaTeo has a beer with Lollo Miki e Cesco

also Nic comes at Vernavola, grande!

what's this, a joke?

mammaVale and papaTeo come home after 11pm, the kids play 'arrabiati': pretty funny!

a nice lunch with Ale

what's this now?

it's the new Padel facility in San Genesio, just 5min off Pavia

papaTeo loves it

also nonnoCla participates

there is a professional tour, it's gaining popularity in Europe

you can use the bounce off the walls (and be careful to not run through them, as they are transparent, right Nic?)

grande nonno!

brava Alyssa

nice forehand nonno!

look at this 77 year old young man jumping to smash it (...just don't focus on where the ball is :-))

that's a 20 years old...not much difference (except for the position of the ball...details)

Gio and Paolotto are the champions

grande coach Majo, grazieeeeee: check out the Padel video

Giorgetto impressed by the fish appetizer at Marechiaro, in piazza Vittoria
