Quotes From Fishsticks

Transfer to Genoa


On January 9th I was invited by some Italian friends in Dublin to an away football contours (old style) only with the difference that the first part of the trip we made there by plane .
Thanks to a super cheap flight (50 € round trip) with RyanAir odiatamata I, Luca, President, Paul (a native of the island instead) and the young doctor, also known as the stadium and SandoTam Instead he paid three times for the same ticket ... ahahahh forgive and not hate me if you read this, we started off Friday night at a time in Pisa.

The atmosphere in the air was unreal, with the money above mentioned fact we booked half plane:) or it was the first Ryanair flight (for me at least) in which 70 passengers were yes and no!

The party started immediately with the first round of beer, pub style, and photos of the ca .. I know that is all decked with the colors of the Genoese, who am also admittedly the first Yellow-Red (Catanzaro) and Black-Blue and then (Inter). The Griffin still has its charm and by the way the story is on his side, in addition to this first division league which sees him in the fourth position.

Once in Pisa around midnight we got into the car and the young doctor had booked for us and we headed to Genoa, but it first passes one of those institutions of the Italian football transfer: the Autogrill.

was the first time Paul all'Autogril and our Irish companion praised the acclaimed Rustichella celebrating with a nice picture (Luke look for photos).

Late at night in short sti five stoned (4 Italian and 1 Irish) have become the highway to Genova to the sound of chants that Luke has taught us very nicely for the occasion.

Arrival in Genoa around one o'clock and fifteen, just in time to go to bed, me and Paul at home Luke (like the song) and other bé all with their own.

Saturday 10 starts with an Italian breakfast, with the gentle care of Mom and Dad Luke gave us during your stay (mitici!). Immediately after classic tour to the port and the paths of Zena, who has all the typical contours of Catanzaro regarding the streets, much to the experience with the De André creuza (finally know what they are) here and there along the tour .



lunchtime, long-awaited moment for me, we went to the "Lantern", an inn in which we tested zenese typical local cuisine (review I'm a part-time).

afternoon instead Luca was mentally retired pre game collection for everyone to get tickets to the sister of the President has booked (santa now!). Kick-off begins at 18:00 Genoa Turin eagerly awaited game that the home team dominated and won the game thanks to a very bubbly, with Milito absent. To appreciate Van der Borre (which I would use more saw how he played), Sculli who made the striker to break through the placement and Jankovic, certainly future soccer star.

After the game I touched alas, a new D-binge with the whole group more diverse and Genoese friends asuon of pies and floured I filled the stomach in anticipation of the deadly Negroni that Luke has done me good afterwards.

truly wonderful evening, made up of those little things I miss Italy and smiles and laughter among cats.

Sunday lunch at the home of Luke with lasagna, roast beef and veal cutlet with french fries ... shame that I had not drunk the night before and I was honored this lily so I do not like the table I had (I apologize to the family of Luke, among other things Southern Italy and then you all know what we care about the fact that you eat well).

Return with Ryan, as always, and the joy of an unforgettable weekend. Not sure I first saw one of the most beautiful of Genoa: Boccadasse.
