Diary for my daughter 28.09.2024 - Colle della Rho

-

 


Hello, my beautiful daughter!
Tata here!
Hope you're well!
Tata is fine today! Today is the party day, and I write this in the morning before all the madness starts. Now I am with your grandmother to the hairdresser and makeup, after we will go back in the town to get changed and after we will go to the party. I will be the driver as I am not drinking. It is a nice day outside today, and it will be very warm. It will be a crazy day for me, so.. wish me luck. So... let's go to your today story...



Colle della Rho



The Colle della Rho (in Italian) or Col de la Roue (in French) is a mountain col at 2,541 metres (8,337 ft), at the border between the massif des Cerces and the Cottian Alps.

Toponymy

The col was named in Latin Collis Rotae (literally Col of the Wheel), the same meaning of its present-day French name, Col de la Roue. On the official Italian maps at the beginning of the 20th century was added a "h" to an old name of the col, Colle della Rô, turning it in Colle della Rhô. Later on, the circumflex accent was lost, ending up in Colle della Rho, the present-day most common Italian name of the col. However, on some editions of the Italian official maps of IGM and on the technical map adopted by the Regione Piemonte the circumflex accent still appears.

History

The Colle della Rho, during antiquity, was one of the most frequented connections between Susa Valley and Maurienne; close to it some Roman coins have been found.
From the Middle Ages on, several battles and skirmish occurred on the pass, which was located at first on the border between Dauphiné and Savoy (up to the Peace of Utrecht, 1713) and later, from 1860 on, between France and Italy. The last fights near the col were connected to the Italian invasion of France (June 1940).

Geography

The pass is located on the border between France and Italy. It connects, from South to North, Bardonecchia (Italy) to Modane (France). It consists in a wide saddle between the Gran Bagna (3,083 m, SW of the pass) and the Roc de Jany (2,657 m, East), a satellite summit of the Punta Nera (3,047 m).
The path over the mountain pass is not paved. It can be reached by mountain bike.



And that was your today story. Monday, we will learn about Tripartite Pact.

Until Monday...

Be nice!
I'm so sorry that another day passed and I didn't hug you! Please forgive me!
I miss you the most!
I love you infinite!

 Hello, my beautiful daughter! Tata here! Hope you're well! Tata is fine today! It is a nice day outside today, not sunny, not cold just very well to sit out. I have been to the barber and now I am resting as in the evening I will go to Arla at work. I woke up around 1 in the afternoon as I tried to sleep how much I could to rest for tonight at work. I didn't have any Amazon for today as I preferred to rest a bit more. So.. I think it's time for your today story...

Olympians The Olympians were a race of deities, primarily consisting

Supernova  A supernova (pl.: supernovae or supernovas) is a powerful and luminous explosion of a star. A supernova occurs during the last evolutionary stages of a massive star or when a white dwarf is triggered into runaway nuclear fusion. The original object, called the progenitor, either collapses to a neutron star or black hole, or is completely destroyed to form a diffuse nebula. The peak optical luminosity of a supernova can be comparable to that of an entire galaxy before fading
