Come Era Una Volta—Serra Sant’Abbondio a 1962

Come era una voltaAs it once was.

Robert’s family went on a three month trip to Italy in the summer of 1962. First time for Mom, Robert, and Julian to meet all the Italian relatives. The photos below are from the slides we took. Uncle Rico purchased a new Kodak camera for us along with one of the new Kodak carousel projectors. If Robert recalls correctly, we would mail the undeveloped rolls of slides back to San Mateo where Uncle Rico would have them processed and then would show them to Nonna Giga and Uncle Johnnie.

The slides are of family and friends, Fonte Avellana, Isola Fossara, and a picnic where the restaurant Le Cafanne is today. They are not in any particular order.

Next—Modena!
