I will be spending a couple of nights in Turin during October. Mi permetterà di trascorrere un paio di notti a Torino nel mese di ottobre. Arriving by train from Paris and staying at the Hotel Best Western. Arrivando in treno da Parigi e presso l'Hotel Best Western. I arrive on the 20th and leave for Rome on the 22nd. Arrivo il 20 e partire per Roma il 22. Are there any Italian war gamers who can tell me what the weather will be like? Ci sono dei giocatori italiani che la guerra può dirmi quello che il tempo farà? My great interest is King Carlo Emannuelle III. Il mio grande interesse è il re Carlo III Emannuelle. Can anyone recommend a museum or things to see for that period of history? Qualcuno può raccomandare un museo o cose da vedere per quel periodo della storia? Mal Wright

I'm from Rome, so I don't know where to find something about Carlo Emanuele III (only one "n") in Turin. Sorry. Try here: link I think that the weather will be good enough. Look at wiki page, there is something about temperatures: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turin

The weather will be hot. Scorching hot. Temperatures may easily reach 40°C during the day. Expecially in Rome. That's where I live and why I can't help you with Carlo Emanuele :) Enjoy your trip. Don't forget the food. It's pretty good in both the cities :)

Ehm… in October it is not 40°C… And this Summer is a fresh Summer.

Hot is good! I will feel at home. Caldo è buono! Mi sento a casa.

Don't forget the food. It's pretty good in both the cities :) I hope so. But I have been told coffee can cost a lot of money for a tourist in Rome. Better if you have an Italian with you. Luckily we will have two Italians to help. Thanks for the links. Spero di sì. Ma mi è stato detto caffè può costare un sacco di soldi per un turista a Roma. Meglio se si dispone di un italiano con voi. Per fortuna avremo due italiani per aiutare. Grazie per il link.
