When your GPS tells you “you have arrived”, keep driving… very slowly…look to the right to the first roundabout exit that is a vertical drop and drop. I think I held my breath the whole time. My arms gripped the wheel. It was a “Let’s do this attitude“! At the bottom of the hill was magic. A beautiful home that is neither new nor old. It just is. It blends with the surroundings. Before Carmela showed me my room, she showed me my view. The cliff houses across the way and the Adriatic. We are at the tip of something.
There is a bistro table for 2, but more importantly there is a very comfortable lounge chair. I immediately lay down listening to ocean while feasting on all of the colors. It is the 2nd week in November. Feels like spring or very end of summer. I am barefoot. Getting a glass of Prosecco.
I decided that I was not leaving. That I was not driving another meter before my scheduled departure. Our hostesses. Carmela and her daughter, , readily volunteered when I asked if they might possibly go to store for me. I made a list. Confession: I bought a pizza to go at Pepe in Grani yesterday. Good to go for dinner!
So now I have Prosecco, pizza and provisions, internet, 2 iPads, 2 iPhones, Netflix and access to everything but Prime. My time was spent walking into town, the dog and cats followed me a way keeping me company. The rest of the time just sat and watched the ocean. Getting ready for my next adventure…Leaving is going to be so very hard to do…. I will be back
