Quadrelle

On Monday, Chelsea, Brittany, and I went on an adventure to find some of Chelsea's long lost relatives. Chelsea is actually half Italian. And her family tree shows that her Italian relatives are from the town of Quadrelle. Having found this town on a map, we knew it was going to be small. But, we hopped on a train that took us just a mile or two outside of Quadrelle in a mere hour and twenty minutes. And this was no ordinary train ride. There was a man on the train who was infatuated with Chelsea. While slightly unnerving during the train ride, it was hilarious once he finally exited the train.

Once we had reached our stop, we exited the train station and started asking people if they knew where Quadrelle was. Most people gave us quite a strange look after the question, but proceeded to tell us how to get there. Here's a few pictures of the walk UP to Quadrelle.



Beautiful mountains in the background.


Colorful, well kept, buildings.


Nice and clean.


We stopped here for lunch. The American Bar.


Quick pose after lunch...before continuing our trek up the hill to Quadrelle.


Look at those mountains!



And after walking (uphill the entire way) about a mile or so, we finally saw this sign.


What a cute little city.


Still walking uphill.


Cute colorful building.


Gorgeous greenery!


We joked on the train ride about there being a sign that said, "Welcome to Quadrelle" and laughed pretty hard when we saw that there actually was such a sign. :D


Unfortunately, no one had heard of the family name we asked about and the cemetery was closed for the day. So, we did not find any of Chelsea's relatives, but we did find their home town.
