Mongiove

This is the town that I posted the surf photos the other day. We always drove past this town on the autostrada and wondered how do you get down there! For once Frank listened to me when I told him that I think I knew how to get down there. I was right! It's a cute little town.


This was taken as we approached Mongiove.
They have a church (chiesa) and a gym (palestra)!

Going towards the beach (spiaggia).


We live on the other side of the mountain.

Some restoration work or maybe a new build.


A ruin.


The other side. People built right onto it!

Yesterday

was a lovely day. It was warm enough to go without a jacket. The sun was shining. If you were in the sun it felt hot! We got to drove around a bit before Frank got tired. We went into a town called Mongiove. They have a nice beach there. Some of the beaches here were ruined by a flood from the mountains in December 2008. I noticed that some of the waves were surf worthy. I haven't seen that alot on a really nice day. Here are the photos.

I hope it brightens your day if you are cold!












We went a down the coast a few km and the surf was calm. It was only in this one spot where the surf was wild! lol
