Off to an interesting start.
No problems with the car in Malta until I board the ferry to leave and it blows a fuse that powers the sat nav and phone charger. Fixed in two minutes so not a problem.Читать далее

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.

Three hours driving brought us to Matera. It was very hot and in several places there where large fires thankfully not near our road. Bluebelle took it all in her stride and never missed a beat evenЧитать далее
these photos bring back lovely memories of the two Milano Taranto rallies I did. Both took in Mater as part of the route down to Taranto. [ALBERT]

We stopped on our way out of the farm stay to admire the baby donkeys.
To get back to the main road we needed to go through a tunnel under the railway. It was not much wider than the car.
We took theЧитать далее

When I looked out the window this morning it had been raining and the forecast was possible thunderstorms all day. So we had a quick breakfast and set off.

We have just boarded the good ship Moby Zazá to Spilt and as usual in Italy the apparent disorganisation leaves you feeling they have never done this before. The booking tells you to go to the port.Читать далее

Yesterday I was not very complimentary about the ferry port at Ancona. The ship was old and the cars where packed in like sardines and I was expecting chaos as we came off, however I was surprised andЧитать далее
So love the video of P leaving the ferry which finishes with my feet running after him :) [Mandy]

Sounds like you’re still in Malta ! [Lol]
Sounds like hell! We hate crowds too, bloody tourists, oh wait a minute… as you say, probably better out of season. Safe drive home. [Jeff]
Yes Ortigia draws the crowds as it is a beautiful city within a city. There is one hotel with gated parking where we stayed last May. I hope you managed to get to see the Archimedes museum and all the unbelievable stuff this Greek/Sicilian invented. [Albert]
