View from Convento de Cristo once a Templar stronghold

Enough time has passed that I can finally write about what happened on Monday though I won't dwell on detail and actually wouldn't write about it at all if it weren't for all of the repercussions that will drag on for months and will pepper my future blogs.  What happened is this;  I had a terrible car accident driving to school on Monday morning.  I was driving GP's car, which is totaled, Grace and I escaped with barely a scratch but both were in shock, and I will soon drown under the pile of paperwork that this entails.  The accident was my fault, though I don't know exactly how it happened, and if it weren't for the fact that Grace could have been killed, it's almost laughable.  I have to say the accident was, and mostly, looked very bad.  But in a totally un-Italian fashion, it was dealt with quickly, efficiently and more importantly with  kindness and gentleness.  From the ambulance drivers, volunteers, to the police, to the overworked emergency room staff everyone was great.  Only now that the insurance companies have to be involved does the mess begin.  This is all I want to say about the accident itself because I want to keep this cheery!
Tomorrow is the great event.  The 60th anniversary luncheon for GP's parents.  Now that will be something to share!  xxoo me
