Today we rode bikes to the beach. Riding was a tad stressful since cars & motorcycles zoomed by a bit too close for my comfort but overall it was a good ride. To get into the Mediterranean sea water was a big thing for me. =) The beach was absolutely beautiful and unbelievably PACKED.
A few things different from the U.S.: men wear speedos - ALL of them. =/ … and most women tiny, tiny bikinis, including kids, grandmas, … everyone. It seems everyone is just interested in a good tan and no one
pays attention to anybody else even though we are all a couple of feet away from each other. It makes you not feel self-conscious which is kind of cool.
After the beach I ate a Delicious gelato…!! Coconut & strawberry..mmmm... and sorry, forgot to take picture of that but not to worry, I will eat many others. =)
In the evening... I went out with the girls! Don't worry, it was very nice & classy. First we went to have an 'aperitivo' at a very nice place on the beach. There they have a buffet of hors d'oeurves and you purchase your drinks - very nice.
Then we went to the classiest open-air club I've ever seen (ok, so I haven't seen many, but still).. also on the beach... I felt like I was about to run into movie stars. Claudia, Monica & I just hung out and chatted as we moved to the beat of 80s & 90s music =)
