Le Meridien Rimini

... best friends by the time we left... 7 Euro well spent!!<br><br>Fri 13 Nov<br>Drizzle greeted us this morning so we got on our wet weather gear and headed off for a walk along the coast to Portofino which was 5km away. The wind blew away any cobwebs we may have had but it blew the rain away so we were happy. The walk followed the coast where we looked into the deep blues ...

... moved and then as if to add one last jab she said, " Atleast we'll get away from the coughing guy", so now we are the ones who will catch sickness because we wanted out seats. We are damned if we do, damned if we don't. One way or another we can never make the people of the train happy.<br><br>We arrive in Genoa at the stop we think is ours. The weather is hot and sunny. We have a two hour lay over, so we stroll over to this beautiful town square that is within ...

This morning we woke up to get ready to go on the Historic Center walking tour of Genoa. We had a nice breakfast at the buffet and I even found a decaf cappa for breakfast too. We met in the lounge at 8:45 and got on a little boat in the harbor and had a tour of the harbor and then got off at the aquarium and started our tour. Genoa is very nice and the historic section dates back ...

Destination 404<br><br>km197'196<br><br>A wonderful winding route via a inland section have lead me from Pisa to the coastline around Genova. But since in that part of the environment it was very hard to find a spot for bushcamping I took the toll freeway to prevent to get stuck in the chaotic traffic of Genova and headed north into the highlands of the northern region of Genova. A beatiful spot at the top of a mountain has provided perfect views to sunset and sunrise, but a bloody cold night!

... a Singapore. <br><br>Lui è un cuoco statunitense sregolato, simpaticissimo e assolutamente fuori dalle righe ho letto anche il suo "Kitchen confidential" e mi ha divertito molto.<br><br>http://www.youtube.com/wa tch?v=7vEtfakmiik<br><br>Non verrebbe voglia anche a voi di provere tutti questi posti?

... kind of a staging system for the people waiting at the red. Kinda like the start of an F1 race. <br><br>Autobahn/Autostrada: This is an event that must be experienced. This super highway is merely a 4 lane divided freeway much like I-70 heading up into the mountains. The main difference comes from the terrain. Southern Germany, Switzerland and most of western Italy are all heavy mountainous regions. The difference is the ruggedness of the ...

One thing I cannot find fault with is the weather in Italy. We have had the most gorgeous days imaginable since we have been here and they just keep coming (except that little, teeny, tiny thunderstorm in Milan but we can just ignore that) As James has said we changed plans from Croatia to Sardinia (No way we could get to Croatia and actually spend any time there) which was a big disappointment all round but we made the ...

Hiking Cinque terre was one of the most spectacular things I have ever done. We took the 5 hour train ride that morning to la spezia and took a smaller train to monterrosso. Cinque terre, is, as the name insinuates, a series of 5 towns connected by a winding hiking path. We elected to start in monterrosso and get the hardest hike out of the way at first. and let me tell you, i was panting. i dont think i have ever hiked up that many stairs before in my life. there was an old man in ...

... to settle into. Plus everything in the Cinque Terra is up. Lugging our bags around every day before being able to check into another room sounded less like a vacation and more like boot camp. So we decided to eat the deposit stay 1 night (we had already payed for it) and take our chances elsewhere. Justion and I were determined and optomistic that we could find better lodging. Mark and Patrick were, well still tired. So Justion and I embarked to ...

The day after is never fun. Last night we went out for a wonderful dinner at this italian restaurant, Gatto Nero (The black cat). We both had seafood pasta, which was amazing. The dinner lasted for 2 hours and we were ready to go to bed afterwards. But oh no...the next stop was my old workstation, Disco Life. I wish I had photos right now, but we bought some batteries in Poland that were already done when I put them in the ...
