Tremendous Turin!

 A very nice 5-day trip to tremendous Turin (see for yourself here below)!

Pics go from the magnificent Egyptian Museum (the world's oldest, 200 years old) to the Venaria Reale on the outskirts of Turin to the Guercino exhibit to a wonderful photo exhibit and to the very touching Superga Memorial in honour of that city's former great soccer team, Grande Torino.
















The amazing hall in the Venaria Reale.




The Superga Memorial.


























Cute!
























































































!!!!!!!





























Jesus's Holy Shroud (under wraps though).




































































Haven't seen too many of these critters in Rome.

































Helen Mirren?
















































































A mere 400,000 tickets were sold for Tim Burton's exhibit at Turin's Cinema Museum (the line-up to get in was about 4 hours).





























The short train ride that takes you up to the Superga Basilica.


























Jesus's Holy Shroud. 

















With former Juventus and Italian national team player Roberto Bettega.





























Summertime (in April)!
