The days of my boasting about the heaven lifestyle here in Trieste are slowing drawing to an end so bear with me. Yesterday after our swim we went into Trieste. First time we’ve actually been in there this time. It really is a most lovely town of the Hapsburg era and so far comparatively undiscovered by the hoards. We had a small lunch and a glass of wine overlooking the harbour then wandered the town. We were on a wild goose chase looking for a book shop Chris wanted which entailed walking around in circles for a bit. Then we went back to the car, which we couldn’t find for a bit….slightly insane at this point. It is very humid and sweaty!!
We came back here via the supermarket to replenish the wine supply and plunged forthwith into the sea. Such welcome relief and the Jelly fish (Medusi…I learn all the words for the pests that are out to get me) had gone completely, now there’s a relief!! It was the loveliest swimsuit deep in the startlingly blue water.
Then its lie about, read, do a magic puzzle, snooze etc until dinner time. Chris cooks the evening meal and we sit about until late talking about the meaning of life….well that’s it most days. One of my must does is to go back to the restaurant in Trieste that I loved so much last time ‘Seppio di Nero’ so maybe we will try to get in there today….apparently its very hard to get into.
Sorry this is so boring, maybe I shouldn’t do it each day for the time being but it keeps me connected!! Amongst all of this I do get homesick for you all.
