I was fortunate enough to be at Silverstone yesterday for my first
ever grand prix and nothing will ever match seeing Schuey punch in
those three laps after Raikonnen pitted. Having been a Ferrari fan
since I was knee high, it was an unashamedly emotional experience for
me to be there to see a Ferrari win. I know its a common occurance
these days but its one thing seeing it on TV and another actually
being there. It just can't ever be beaten! Just feeling the sound of
that Ferrari V10 vibrating your insides is unforgettable!
Was amazed at the number of Ferrari fans there were at the race given
that its McLaren, Williams and Button territory. But thinking about
it, with their success they've become like the Manchester United of F1
and the Scudetto is as much a fashion item as it is a symbol of motor
racing. Sad for the long time fans but I suppose its natural.

Congratulations! I should be attending my first Grand Prix next year on my
honeymoon. I can't wait.

What a way to honeymoon! Which one will you go to? Think I'll have to
try for Monza next. It'll be more like a pilgrimage than just going to
see a race!

We're not sure where we're going to get married, but one idea that keeps
popping up is seeing if we could hold a quick ceremony at the Ferrari Factory.
<<Which one will you go to? Think I'll have to try for Monza next. >>
We were thinking Imola or Monaco.

I consider a trip to the Factory to be a sort of pilgrimage. <g>
