Picking up the truck this morning was quiet an exciting moment. A 12m3 truck is quiet big and when driving it, it feel like you are actually driving a huge truck.
I was looking to chat on the radio with a code name and get some tattoo but AB and Sam where waiting at the Riviera Palace, to put the empty truck out of his misery ..of being empty.
Ab is a qualified mover, graduated from Move University in Movedam and he was motivated and had plenty of ideas to put as much as possible in it so that we only need one aller/retour. The three movers were moving fast and with a little croissant and coffee, the truck and Ab/Sam in a separate care, headed to Italy.
Where alway through the sound of my dashboard asks for my attention, NO OIL! Damn, this car is new and its a Mercedes, this cannot be happening. I call Ab that already was tapped on his fingers this morning for using his mobile in the car, and we decided to press on.
Entering the property (oil light was taking a pause) we start unpacking, sqeezing it all in the worlds smallest elevator and pushing it all in the spare room.
Our reward after a couple of hours ? A lunch at 14.00 to celebrate the completion of it all and enjoy what Italian does so well...Ravioli!
On the way back and headed to the rental agent and mentioned the problems with the oil. They claim the car is fine this a problem with the indicator... Ok, but well I think this deserves a discount for me ( espresso's are not that cheap you know) on which they agreed.
Tonite will be my last nite in the Riviera Palace, and after many emotions of the last couple of week, I am know 100% ready for the Italian adventure. I am looking forward to learn a new language and get some Italian customers, hopefully we can negotiate over a coffee and soon I will publish the South of France/ Italy guide to the best Espresso. Ciao!
