Radar Rimini

... lanes around to find ever more wonderful views, interesting shops eg... guns and rifles in all their glory!! (yep - off the shelf), palace, church and a huge race track where they do trials (we could hear them in the background). It was like a rabbit warren in a way, but going up instead of down.

We went for an early morning walk to see the sunrise the next day. It was magnificent!

As I wrote in the title, I had ...

We are on our last day in Rimini, and we're both quite glad of it. Not that we haven't had a good time (though the hostel has been a bit rubbish).

The journey down here from Munich was a real slog! It took 8 hours, though that didn't really bother us too much. 8 hours of discomfort on a cramped Italian train however, that was what made it difficult. It was a compartment style train (6 seat per compartment, 3 on each side facing each other) which seemed great when we first sat down ...

... to check in the morning. Of course morning came and they had one room left but couldn't do it for any lease than 30euros more than the orignally wanted. Son instead of saving 30 we spent an extra 30 - oh well to quote Role Models don't ********* a *********ter...hillarous movie (and only one we've seen in months) by the way. Next day we toured all around Rimini which we expected to be like a jazzed up Miami but actually had a cool historic center and eclectic ...

... There is the most incredible sheen to them; some are from the 3rd - 4th centuries AD, and yet they look like they were created yesterday. Pretty much everything else in Europe has been - as Mat so delicately puts it - "covered in cherubs and gilt!", and it's unexpected to find a place so untouched through the Renaissance.

Next time we will make a few days for this lovely town.

... the inside slot running an out so I started to sag on that when he came back to 2, who at that point had hooked up. I was shielded off the ball, hesitated then tried to time my hit on 2’s back as the ball arrived. I was a moment early for sure, I jarred him the instant before the ball got to him, causing it to bounce off him incomplete. I was sure that a flag was going to get tossed. But again I got lucky. I apologized to 2 on the next play, telling him I was ...

A disgrace I know, but I didn’t take any pictures in Forli , in fact I almost didn’t take any NOTICE of Forli at all. A slight distraction in the midst of me preparing last year accounts and my VAT returns before we depart for Asia. I had to get it done and yes I felt like a boring old b******d but when it was all done it was wonderful. The hotel here was nice ...

... museum was closed that day.We explained we had come all this way to see it and he kindly agreed to open it up after lunch for us. He showed us a place to get lunch agreeing to meet us back at the museum in an hour and half. At lunch we ate a great meal of antipasto and pasta and I downed the house wine which came in a caraffe. Not wanting to waste it I drank the lot and so was suitably mellow by 3pm when we returned to the museum. The museum was ...

Mi sono innamorata di Italia quando ero molto piccola e mio cugino, che studiava medicina a Siena, mi ha dato un album di litfiba. Come passavano gli anni ho preso diversi corsi d'italiano in una prova di imparare la lingua.
Quando avevo 15 anni i miei genitori hanno deciso che facciamo il giro di Italia. Firenze era la citta che ha rubato i miei impressioni.
Dopo molti anni, il 2007, ho preso la decisione di andare per un paio di mesi a Milano per ...

... cooling down in the sea. And though Rimini's beaches are covered in candy-striped umbrellas, the only bare parts being small strips of public sand littered with cigarette butts. And though the water is somehow dirtier in the public areas as if even the waves are aware that we haven't paid five euro to enjoy them, I had a great time. After the beach we indulged in our afternoon hammock naps. Then preparations began for our feast. Everyone pitched in. Galen ...
