We’ve discussed before that when we were planning this adventure, we scheduled in a little down time for a rest along the way. Bertinoro is one of those R&R destinations.
You have already seen the hunting cabin we are staying in, so comfortable. Even with the beautiful weather, Cindy requests a fire✔️
Unbelievable sunrises.
I’ve received several questions on Bertinoro’s location. Here is the basic location on the map.
Bertinoro is a very small village, way off the tour bus route, fantastic vistas.


This is a pomegranate tree with ripe fruit 
Of course we found the local pizza and gelato hotspots ✔️


Local winery’s ✔️


And a new friend, Vino Nobile. The local vineyard kitty 🍷
We did manage to visit a couple of neighboring city’s, remember we are right on the Adriatic Sea here. Cesenatico is a fishing port and very popular beach destination in the summer. It’s also home to a wooden boat museum. FYI Leonardo Da Vinci designed the canal and the city center.


These cabins are used for dipping anchovy’s when they run, and for drinking vino the rest of the time😜
Today we drove to Ravenna, a very famous town for its long history of poets and writers. It’s also famous for mosaic tile work, however they charge $$ to visit those so we just walked the city. Beautiful and so quiet, a real Italian city!






Great time and we feel so rested! Four hour drive tomorrow to the Piedmont area of Italy for five nights and some more rest. Then on to Lake Como.


Arrivederci and Ciao Ciao

I can’t say envy enough!!!! You’re going at a great pace now…love it!!! Wonderful Italian experience! xoxo
