Today is the Liberation Day holiday and Simi and I have been for a stroll along the promenade at Sampieri. I thought you'd like to see what the Med looked like this morning.
That looks like a lovely place and I'm sure Miss Simi enjoyed the change of scenery. Is is far from Modica? How do pronounce Modica, accent on first or second syllable? I keep thinking like Modena, on first, but haven't got a clue. regards jmb
Hi, jmb. Miss Simi loved it but wouldn't look at the camera because there were so many other doggies around! Modica like Modena - accent on first. Auguri
jmb, forgot to say it's about 10 mins away by car - but we haven't got one, so we go when friends offer a lift as no one seems to take dogs on public transport here.
Hello Welshcakes - what nice pictures..A long time ago I read "The Ten pains of Death " by Gavin Maxwell;I did visit the village he lived in briefly; is that anywhere near?
Where's the sandy beach? How nice to have a walk along the sea front in the morning instead of commuting to work, or suffering the way that Newmania is.
Hi, Sally. I think you'd love it! janejill, I think that's Scopello in Tràpani and that's on the other side of the island. I've not read that book - will look out for it. LN, "never say never!" Lee, you, too, would love it - but not in summer when it gets very crowded! Oh, NM, I would! Glad I cheered your day a bit xxx steve, I'm sure you would both love that particular promenade. Ellee, the sandy, unpolluted beach is right next to it.

ReplyDeleteOn my list of places I would love to go but probably won't get to :(
ReplyDeleteNow, that looks lovely and peaceful...I wouldn't mind a stroll along there myself!
ReplyDeleteI bet you would rather be in an Insurance Office in rainy Croydon wouldn`t you. You look rather sweet and the background is ravishing.
ReplyDeleteYou have made my day a little better.

I love the Med and so does the wife.
