A nice drive down to the sea with Linda and Gino this morning. At an almost deserted Marina di Modica, the sea shimmered with tantalising colours in the autumnal light and a beautiful hibiscus was in full bloom.
Some discerning [mostly German] campers have taken up residence, in their vans, in one of the squares; apparently they shut up their homes for the winter, thus saving on fuel, and spend the season here. Not a bad idea, is it?
That middle picture is so inviting. I'd love to be able to sit on those stone benches right now.
ReplyDeleteOh what I wouldn't give to be able to see the Med today! The rain has somewhat abated, but let's face it, it's November in North America! blah!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I love your photos as well!! Might I use one to post on my blog?
ReplyDeleteOh WL I have seen the sea so many times this week :-) warm and sunny weather as well.
ReplyDeleteBack to gloomy UK tomorrow :-(
That's a tonic for your spirits! I must say that since I've been working in Bournemouth, I get withdrawal symptoms if I don't see the sea once a week.
ReplyDeleteI wish I was there now rather than waiting for a plumber with a streaming cold!
ReplyDeleteAnd one day you will, dragonstar! Hi, Leslie. One day when we are both better, perhaps we'll have a drink on the Med! Thanks, Rhi. Of course - I am flattered. Hi, Anne. Glad you have had good weather in Liguria. Hi, WW. Yes, we don't realise how much we need to see the sea, do we? Poor jams - I know all about waiting for plumbers....
ReplyDeleteAre they allowed to do that? I can understand why though.
ReplyDeleteHi, Ellee. Yes, they are there perfectly legally. They don't bother anybody and empty their loos in the designated places!
ReplyDeleteMost certainly looks different to what I remember.
ReplyDeleteIt looks wonderful :-)
ReplyDeleteSigh - as we wait for snow, although my daughter who works in The Caribbean longs for cool and snow
ReplyDeleteAnd of course we have amazing sea here.wild and angry ,but still inviting and beautiful
