And do we found amazing weather at Milano Maritime. We parked our van at the edge of the beach and just enjoyed the sound of the waves…
Well, just kidding… If you know our kids, you know that silence is 1000 times more precious than gold… And so it is impossible to get before they are asleep. Anyway, with 18C in the night and sunshine instead of the rain on the next day, we could not ask for more 😀
Sarsina was supposed to be just a stop with a place to sleep but it turned out an interesting place, full of history, with a surprisingly vivid main square, filled with bars and restaurants. Plauto was born here and the town is proud of its “son”. It shows in names of bars, dishes in the menu and street names. We had a lovely dinner at Antica Osteria and a very funny chat with its intriguing owner.
On our way to the more sunny part of Italy we stopped in Cesena. Although perhaps ii is not amazing, it offers really nice atmosphere and some picturesque corners.
After a long day in Perugia we drove South to spend the night in Umbertide (communal sosta camper).
In the morning we headed to Citta di Castello. Because there was a street market on that day we had a great opportunity to get delicious panini con porchetta! Kids loved it too! But the impressions on the city were overlaid with the market stalls full if clothes, carpets, towels etc.
Sansepolcro, although much smaller than Citta di Castello, seemed more interesting to us.
Although Tuscany and Umbria were really tempting us to stay longer, the weather forecast clear our doubts. Six consecutive days of rain persuaded us to move North to stay nearby Ravenna where the rain forecast were much more acceptable (2 days with light precipitation in the next week).
