Hi all

We have decided to make our way North as the clock is ticking, we have gone from Siena a very pretty place and headed for the Italian Riviera on the Med coast.

It was about 350 km good ride but a bit windy as we seemed to be skirting a batch of bad weather but our luck has held and all was dry.

The coast line is amazing little towns on high cliffs, dont tell Linda she thinks im glued to the road;

We were originally going to Portafino but went to a little village Devia Marina instead, lovely little place where we got an onsite caravan with its own ensuite and chalet attached and even a discount because of our stqy at the camp in Siena.

Into town for a look a food, only a small deli where th e lady did not speak english and could not understand my italian,  we got some great food and great wine for very little.

I needed a hair cut so passing a empty hairdresser Linda pushed me in again no common language clippers for the trim was buzz buzz and point all sign language, good job im wearing a helmet for the next few weeks;

typing this is a bit slow ( please dont read fast) as the french keyboard im on is the strangest layout ever.

At the camp we decided to do a bit of washing and to dry it we had a small line up above the cooker, gas on to dry it, I said to linda after a while can you smell burning, no no so we left it,  guess what a pair of burnt knickers

Well more to come

see ya
