Oh! I do like to be beside the seaside!

Though not many other people seem to! Here we are in Rimini which is very much off season despite temperatures in the mid twenties. It has that faded desultory air of all out of season holiday resorts. We arrived at mid day after an hour spent avoiding kamikaze drivers on the motorway followed by two hours in snail slow nose to tail traffic on the roads we used to avoid the motorway.

We have spent this afternoon using up the leeway we had built into the schedule in case we had any hold ups en route to the ferry. We've walked along the beach, had a couple of beers, washed our smalls and had an afternoon nap. Very relaxing! Are off out nnow to a nice restaurant that we spotted earlier.
