Quiet Day

The dogs and I have had a quiet day today. I had to breakdown and put on the air conditioner last night and part of the day today so far. It’s been partly to mostly cloudy for the early part of the day but the sun is now out and it’s gotten hot.

When I said before that it was “sort of a marina” I certainly didn’t know what I was talking about! I took the dogs for a longer walk around the riverfront and it’s a HUGE marina. The riverfront feeds into the Ligurian Sea. I had no idea! There was even one of those super-yachts moored there. Gorgeous boats. It’s just a shame I can’t hook up with some handsome, single Italian captain!😜

I’ve made a reservation at the posh-y restaurant for dinner tonight. Can’t wait to see what that’s like and what’s on the menu. More to follow on that…

Ok, so had dinner at the restaurant but honestly, was not impressed. As a woman dining alone I’m used to being somewhat overlooked but this time I was not even asked if I wanted to sit on the terrace or inside. I was shown to a table set for one off in a corner. Although I did receive my drink and food after a fashion, I was completely ignored for the rest of the meal and the food wasn’t great except for my appetizer (about 8 HUGE grilled shrimp). I asked for a coffee after my meal which I never received. It went so far that I had to go to the bartender to ask for my check after waiting, sitting at a table that had not even been cleared of dirty dishes, in order to pay the bill. Needless to say, I won’t go again. Very disappointed.
