Kevnjan's big adventure.

Sun. 12th. Feb. After yet another night of torrential rain we awoke on the seafront and looked for signs of wet, inside the van. Dry as a bone!! Big sigh of relief and put the kettle on. We're beginning to relax a bit more now things have been fixed. Around 10am. we took a walk up to the town, had some coffee and phoned Arnie. The shops didn't open until 11am so we hit the road. This is a pretty piece of coastline with the sea on one side and the rolling hills and countryside on the other, a little like the south coast of Sicily. It would be nice to see it in the sunshine! The road, SS106 is fun and easy to drive with very little traffic. I suspect that changes in the summer. We stopped around 1pm for some lunch at Soverato, on the seafront, thought we might stay the night. We did a little housework and Jan wandered onto the beach where she was confronted by the leader of a pack of dogs which seemed to think it was their beach. We spent an hour watching these creatures intimidating every passer by and decided to move on. I'm glad we did because we found a spot on the beach, only 5 or 6 miles on in Lido di Camina. Peace and quiet reigned and then there was the sound of excited voices outside. 8 or 9 men of Asian origins were playing cricket. I never expected to see that in Italy. Spent about 3 hours Skyping with Julie and family and Paul and Barb then found a film on TV. The further north we go the more channels we're finding. Oh the simple life!!
