I farewelled the guys this morning. We were all on different schedules, going this way and that. My pathway today starts with a train trip to Sanremo to pickup a car, then 200k drive to Santa Margherite Ligure on the Portofino coast.
Steady driving along the coastal motorway, past the odd snarl or 2 or 3, and into my hotel at 18:30.
Great spot this, Hotel Metropole, overlooks the bay with vast magnificent manicured gardens and walk ways down to secluded private beach. Truckloads of banana lounges down there if you just want to veg in the sun.
Dinner in the restaurant was pretty good too. More waiters than tables!
Started with some anchovies, then pasta and main was grilled seabass. No red tonight, strictly Italian chardonnay from Piedmont. Damn good too.
