Delle Palme Salerno

Found a really cool red leather satchel to replace my old grey nylon one that has given me 9or10 years of service.
Florentine leather - so nice...
Also went to get 1 more tripe roll before leaving town and discovered they had beef too so tried one of them instead. Just as amazing as the tripe one!!!

... to do with that. After we checked in and freshened up, we walked around Salerno. First we headed down to the mare (ocean) and got there just as the sun was setting behind the headland of the bay.
