Santa Margherita - Italian Riviera

For lunch I went back to the same restaurant, my mind set on getting the same thing as last night. Well, they had gnocchinetti with prawns (microscopic pieces of shrimp) and slices of zucchini. It was good, but no way matching Birreria Centrale in Florence. I'm sitting between an older Italian couple and a young couple from South Africa who are just finishing their holiday.

Well, I ordered a half liter of Vino Rosso Bella Casa .... I was planning on publishing as much as I can on the blog....but a nap sure sounds good about now. But not before my gelato.

I'm having a great time people watching...I had to check to make sure my sunglasses were on cause I guess the others are people watching too (me included.)

We'll, I've cleaned my plate, I'm getting warm, I need to go to the supermarket for water, need to post on the blog, probably snooze a little, and get ready to go out for dinner. The others on the tour are doing a 'cooking class/lesson for $90'...why bother I don't cook anymore...so I'll be on my own.

I do need to talk about some of the people I've met on this trip....(separate entry)

 As a side note, every time I look up a woman, across from me who reminds me of a friend in Baton Rouge, Renia Rose, keeps looking at me....do I really look like that much of a tourist...alone, straw hat, sweating like a bull (they're having a heat wave... It's been in the 90s), typing wildly on my IPad....shit! I could be a food critic..maybe I should ask her if she'd like to read my blog.....but she's probably a tourist too. It's amazing the looks you get when you're alone...but never an offer to pay for dinner...or linner...depending on the time of day according to JP.

 Well, it's 2 o'clock, I've got an Italian couple next to me now...sure wish I had JP here to translate, I need to pull my credit card out of my belly and hit the road back to the hotel before I fall asleep at the table....I'll save that for the terrace.
