A day in Bergamo

On the road from lake Iseo, there are very few people in sight. I imagine also because the clocks went forward the previous evening and most people, rightly, have decided it was not worth losing an hour of sleep for such a cold rainy day . It’s our second trip to Bergamo Alta. The first was another Sunday in the winter between 2021 and 2022, tha time a sunny day, but Covid was still in the air and although we enjoyed our visit to the Accademia Carrara we only skirted round the historical centre of the Città Alta due to too many people in the narrow streets. Also this time we plan to park near the stadium, but we are lucky and find a free place just round the corner from Accademia Carrara. It has started to rain, but never mind, we have an umbrella ea
