Italy - Sun & Sea with Derek, Wendy & Isobel

Italy - Sun & Sea

We all headed to the beach in the beautiful sunshine. Some of us went swimming in the sea whilst others enjoyed paddling, playing bat and ball, frisbee and some went on the fun trampolines, a first experience for a few of us.

We found time to relax by the pool and to take a dip when we felt the need. 

We enjoyed visiting different old towns where we walked through cobbled streets, enjoying looking at some of the
ancient buildings, churches and lots of small shops. 

We all enjoyed tasting all the different flavours of delicious Italian ice cream. Yummy!

We stopped for a drink at a stunning
hotel/spa set in the mountains with breathtaking views down into the valley. We continued our journey to Rocca Calasico where we came across a lovely restaurant located at a height of 1460 metres and overlooked by the ruins of its castle dating back to the Middle Ages. 

During our holiday we took lovely strolls along the beach stopping for

lunch and having drinks in the beach cafes. In the evenings we went out for  lovely meals and enjoyed trying some traditional meat and fish dishes.
