Santo Stefano di Rogliano

We saw Ortigia in daylight this morning for the first time and it created a much better impression than last night. We enjoyed a walk and breakfast before the testing drive out of the city.
Driving up to the ferry at Messina we saw many burnt trees and even road signs with the paint burnt off.
We met some nice people as we waited for the ferry including its captain who agreed I could come to his bridge during the crossing if he could have his photo taken in the car. See photos.
It was interesting to watch a train going into the ferry next to ours. See video.
While on the ferry we decided how much further to drive and where to stay tonight then booked it.
The accommodation is charming with a beautiful view.

While driving over the Calabrian mountains the cross wind became noisy so after a coffee stop we both put in ear plugs. Wow, suddenly the car sounded much better, it ran smoother and speed went up from 80 to 90kph. So if Lewis Hamilton is reading this it could make the difference he needs right now.Meer informatie
