After exploring Lecce for the last several days, we went in search of the bus that would take us to the Adriatic. It was a little work but with the help of a friendly Italian man, we boarded the bus (with a little trepidation). The ticket machine on the bus was out of paper, so the ride was free. 20 minutes later we were on the seashore. As we got off the driver let us know that he was returning to Lecce in 45 minutes and if we were not on board, we would need to wait 4 hours to return to town. We had a quick beer and lunch and just barely made it back to the bus stop. The return trip was also free.

I love the picture of Holly by the sea. Interesting looking dinner! I recognize the mussels, but what is the orange and white dragon tail thing? Hope it was tasty!
Not sure exactly what it was, but it tasted kind of like shrimp.
Beautiful!
So beautiful! Love that church!
If you loved that one, there are about 15 more in this city. I will send along pictures as we visit more of them.
Has the public profusion of art infused your soul yet? I must admit I found myself searching the sea for a trimaran bobbing in the waves.
Anch’io.
