I fredags den 25:e september åkte jag tillsammans med min värdfamilj från Brignano gera d'adda till Saint-Vincent som ligger i provinsen Aosta. Vi anlände ganska sent så därför gick vi och la oss direkt. Under lördagen åkte vi till staden Aosta där vi hade en guide som gick med oss runt staden, tyvärr pratade han bara italienska så jag förstod bara litegrann. Han visade oss Arco di Augosto, en katedral där de på vissa ställen lyckats ta fram originalmålningen från romartiden och en massa annat.
Efter att vi hade gått runt staden åt vi lunch och efter det åkte vi upp till slottet vilket förstås var väldigt vackert! Själva staden ligger mitt ibland bergen så naturen var helt makalöst vacker. Slottet låg bara en bit högre upp än staden och utsikten var än mer häpnansväckande vacker från den höjden! Trappan som jag har tagit ett kort på fick mig att tänka på bröllopsfotografier, tänk att fota ett nygift par på den trappan. Det skulle vara helt magiskt!
On Friday the 25th of September me and my host family left Birgnano gera d'adda to go to Saint-Vincent in the province Aosta. We arrived quite late so once there we went to sleep immediately. On Saturday we went to the city of Aosta and we had a guided tour around the city, unfortunately spoke the guide in Italian so I wasn't able to understand much but I got some things here and there. The guide showed us Arco di Augosto, a cathedral were they in some places had managed to retain some of the original paintings from the roman time and loads of other things and places.
After we had gone around the city we had lunch and after that we went to the castle which of course were so beautiful! This city is in the middle of the mountains so all the nature was absolutely outstanding. The castle was just a bit higher up and once again, the surroundings were absolutely stunning especially from that height! The staircase in one of the pictures made me think about wedding photographies, imagine a newlywed couple on that staircase. That would be magical!
