And the weather forecast showed a decline.
But a lovely sunrise (sort of) over Portonovo.
We are close to Ancona which the guide books say steer clear of – so we didn’t. I would say that on balance the guides are right. Decent enough cathedral
But if you turn around you can see what I mean.
Anyway, we were taken with Porto Recanati yesterday, so revisited for lunch.
Note the vino – it is a holiday!
Quick walk down to our beach – it’s a 500 feet straight down (and back up again) climb.
And back again to Porto Recanati in the evening. Loved the sky.
And the town was heaving, with police directing traffic and crowds. We thought it was a festival but it seems it was simply the Sunday evening promenade with everyone out. All gone by 8.30.
And, by the way, the food over the whole 2 weeks has been stupendously good. Dinners tend to be pasta followed by meat – we learned to order only one main and share it. The pasta (tortelloni and tagliatelle) and the sauces (ragu/bolognese and tomato especially ) have been stunning. And the very creamy ice-creams.
