Go Swimming In Salerno

Salerno is a city situating long the littoral of the Mediterranean Sea, so...

the residents of this Paradise (it's my all life dream) need only cross the way...

to reach the beaches of the city. What can I say you, it's sooooo nice... but dangerous. The water of the sea in the city is full of all sorts of wastes: from -pardon- shit of every provenience till bacterias causing furuncles as happend to us when we went to swimm here once about 13 years ago. This year the beach was closed for this reason till the purifier was finally repared.

But the residents laugh only about these dangers.

In any case, after that bad experience we never went more to swimm in the city. We prefere to make a long-long road til Paestum where the water of the sea is completely different.

There is a large belt of pine and eucalipt planting where companies of people hide from the sun on midday...

As always all refuses are left on the ground after these picknicks so that at the end of summer it's unpossible to find a place where to put a feet in these plantings...

But the sea is great, the sand is so mild, the air is incredible...

Ah... From the 1 august we will go every day there. My husband has his vacation finally...

What All These Persons Are Doing? -Quitz

No. They are TOURISTS!

The answer you will find at the end of this quitz.





So, where is this place where every tourist becomes great wish to dance???

In... Italy! It's Pisa. And this is the square with the Leaning Tower, the Cathedral and Baptistry.

All of them. Every tourist has the same idea in the head.
Maybe we are all equal.

Pizza Near The Sea

Pls visit my new site "Mystic Gemstones"

If you like to pass time or to eat near the sea, you have to come in Salerno. The town is not very great and if you have a car, you can go out in the evening to pass some time near the sea sitting in one of the numerous "half-wild" pizzerias.

For about 20 km the road that is called litoranea goes near the sea, over the beach practically. There are free or paid beaches or beaches with paid parking. But I tell you now about the evening hours, so the beaches do not interest us in this post.

Many of these structures are built so as you see on this photo:

They are made for the persons that come here in the daytime, but in the evening -and all the year long- they are open for pizzeria and restaurant visitors. So, if you go in a place like this you sit practically over the beach and the breath of the sea and the wind caress you.

Why I call them half-wild? Because they are made not as permanent buildings where you normally eat, but are "temporary"(even if they are here at least for 13 years).


After that you can find a paar of places where you can sit some more and enjoy the night, the sea, the breath of the sea and the wind. Maybe you like to bath in the night?

I like these evenings very much. They are equal in summer and in winter because the weather is not very different here. It's relatively warm even in december. Ah, I like pizza near the sea...
