Saturday - Gran Sasso Laboratories

On Saturday, after rising at an ungodly hour, and a last minute dash from the Lido del Sirene to the Univerity by Marus, David and myself, we set out on the bus for our visit to the Gran Sasso Laboratories.

	On the way, to more vocal amoungst us gathered at the rear of the bus..

A guitar appeared..

	And we were serenaded on our way..

For the final trip down into the mountain, we left the bus and boarded a fleet of mini-vans.

	Photography was not encouraged inside the laboratories, so we paused for a group photograph outside after emerging..

Then on the way back, the late nights and early morning started taking a toll.

	So those of us that were awake amused ourselves taking pictures of those that weren't.

Even Antonio was quiet..

	And then on Saturday afternoon, Marcus and I took a bus to the station, where he was to make his departure. Here is a momento of the penalty we almost incurred when we got the procedure for buying the tickets wrong.. (I decided against photographing the bus inspectors while they were explaining our transgression).
