| The four in-laws |
SATURDAY 7 - MONDAY 9 JUNE 2008
Our son's Australian parents-in-law are on a walking holiday in Italy and we are joining them for a few days.
We caught the ferry from Ceuta to Algeciras and train to Malaga where we stayed in an excellent hotel right on the beach. The weather was fantastic and I had my first swim in the Mediterranean Sea.
The next day we flew to Milan, where it was pouring with rain, and then caught the train right to Santa Margherita. The taxi ride to the hotel was 15 euros but we could have walked it in 15 minutes. Lesson number one in Italy – always ask the taxi price before getting in!
Santa Margherita is a lovely Riviera town with elegant shops. We wandered along the streets to the port, and looked at some of the expensive boats in the marina.
On Monday, we met up with Geoff and Cecily, Lisa’s parents. We had a wonderful lunch together and caught up on news of our son. We walked to the next village of Rapallo. We had an excellent meal in the evening at Antonios near the hotel.
