One of the highlights for me during this week in Italy will always be visiting the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist and spending time with the Shroud of Turin. I had free time today before an informal dinner this evening. So this was where I wanted to go. The trip included a subway ride and long walk along the Via Roma toward the Cathedral. That is a big shopping district and reminds me a lot of my time in Rome.

During the rest of this week I’ll be sharing stories with you from the area as I join a group of agricultural bloggers from around the world for New Holland Blogger Days. You’re going to hear about sustainability, feeding a hungry world and lots more. So as I learn, so will you. Follow our tweets at #NHAgWorld.

Here are some fairly random photos from my visit to downtown Turin this afternoon: Visiting Turin
