Next post up: our sun-filled weekend on the Ligurian Coast meeting up with friends from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada!
I’m playing catch-up with the blog, so this post is not about this weekend which we spent at the seaside near Portofino, but instead about the weekend before that where we took Massi’s blonde girlfriend up into the mountains. Italians do one of two things when there’s a heat wave- they escape either to the mountains, or to the seaside, there’s really only those two options; it’s almost unheard of to stay in the city, or if you do, you’re spending the entire day in front of your air conditioner wishing you were in the mountains or at the sea... I had just bought a new motorcycle jacket (my first) and evidently I have excellent taste in motorcycle wear because I guess the brand I chose is quite popular (in addition to pricey, I can attest to that!). So this was the jacket’s debut- a quick jaunt to Passo San Marco. Massi calls it the “top of the world” and it really is worth a visit if you’re ever in the area. The views are just incredible, the drive up even more so. I found it endearing that there was a food truck up at the top, they were advertising every variation of food made with mirtilli (blueberries), so I assume they are in abundance up there at this time of year.
