Flag of Italy  , Tuscany,
Friday, August 15, 2008

Moved camp today headed for Italy.  Dropped into Grace Kelly's pad (Monaco) for a bit of a look around and drool at the huge yatchts moored in the harbour.  GPS took us right down to the waterfront!  Boys had a ride in a Ferrari 360 around the Grand Prix circuit - they were pretty stoked at that!  Toured the Palace which was beautiful inside.  Could see a bit of a storm brewing, and it was pretty windy so after going round in circles for a bout half an hour (GPS was haviong a fit!) , made it up out of Monaco and headed along the coast.  Plenty of traffic and short tunnels en route to Italy, and a massive hail storm as well which brought the whole motorway to a halt!  Found somewhere to camp in Torre del Lago, on the coast near Lucca - caravan parks very full as it was a holiday for the Feast of Assumption, and the whole of Italy was on the coast (it seemed that way anyway).  Squeezed into a campsite and retired for the night . .
