We awoke to early morning rain, but luckily the clouds soon parted and we set off on the bikes to the early Roman settlement at Bolonia, some 15kms from our campsite. Two good 3 km climbs each way certainly made the outing worthwhile, as did the magnificent setting of the old Roman town, which is right on the beach having traded with North Africa in tuna and salt since the 1st century BC.

It is getting proper cold here again so it’s wonderful to escape the weather through your blog! Lovely pics too! Venga, venga!
We’re loving it but the locals think it’s freezing – all the cyclists are in their winter woollies (& team kit top to toe on all of them!)
Love all the photos which add to the verbal descriptions. Roman ruins at Bolonia must have been amazing! Also loved the one of Leigh on bike plus trailer in those narrow streets. Have fun and look after yourselves! With fond love. M and T and Mimo!
Glad you’re enjoying it all! xx
