Where my dad worked during the war at the docks. It didn’t look as if it had changed much in the intervening years. Narrow old cobbled streets and wide squares.
Things to remember:
- Got lost trying to find our way into the town.
- Police (Carabineri) carrying shiny swords (celebration?)
- Walked round the town squares.
- Coffee in a street cafe.
- Americano was a ristretto coffee with a jug of hot water.
- Do it yourself coffee!
- S had ice cream I had beer.
- We found a park with Lavender growing in it, well looked after.
- Two beers in the park.
- Whitney Houston act in place of a show – we didn’t go on and on and on.
- Listened to Shane the pianist in Flutes.
- Had to listen Aka (Dolce) spouting his lack of knowledge about dance origins.
- Watched him dancing with the little girl with the red shoes.
