One of Our Favourites - Cafe Crema

Kind-a like an ice coffee, but made with an espresso shot. Fantastic pick up for a hot day.

Setting Sun Catching Giovanezza

Out on the sea wall, looking back at the old town of Giovanezza. The beautiful sunsets bring such a beautiful soft light to the old white buildings.

Our Palace, Giovanezza

14th century building. We booked it on AirBnB. Gorgeous character filled building in the heart of Giovanezza Old Town. To be honest, we only ended up in this wonderful coastal town because we found the accommodation!

Sunset on the East Coast

It is so easy to think of Italy as a basically north-south oriented country. We easily forget how much it curls around, and in parts almost runs east-west. Giovanezza is an example, where the coast runs almost east west, and situated on a little headland, it catches both sunrise and sunset (in summer, in any case). A sunset worthy of any west facing seaside town!

We ate a lot of seafood on this trip.

Crowd - Euro Cup Final

Most of Bomba, settled in the piazza, to watch Italy and England in the final match of UEFA Euro 2020. Spoiler alert - Italy won in penalties after a final score of 1-1 in regular play.

Performance, by Bomba Pro Loco

A performance was put on in the Bomba Old Town. Five scenes. Five locations. The cast performed their scene over and over, as the audience moved through from one location to the next, in groups of six. A young cast, and a stellar performance by all.

Old Cars in the Bomba Piazza

Ricardo, the local mechanic, is apparently a very active member of a local club - I think minimum vehicle age is 30 years. One sunny morn, they came through town and lined up, while drivers and curious residents milled and admired and drank coffee.

Reggia di Caserta - Built to Surpass Versailles

Apparently, one of the architectural briefs explicitly stated that this palace was to surpass Versailles. Not far from Naples, it was built over decades, and added and modified for many more after that.
