I love this little town so very very much. It could very nearly be my favorite ever. We happened to go through it on our way from Napoli to Rome and we got lunch here. It is on the tip of this tiny little pennisula and is very hilly and filled with tall majestic buildings.
We wandered for about half an hour and saw a good bit of the town while looking for a suitable eatery. We eventually settled on a small sea food restruart right on the edge of the water. The owner brought us each out a bag of deep fried calamari and we also ordered a plate of Alici (which are the tiny eyeball fish). It was all super super good and reasonably priced.
We walked across the to this gelateria after lunch. See the clear shield sign on the wall there? That's an award from a gelato college. So so so so SO good! Cheap, huge portions and the best flavors you could ever imagine. There is not as much cream in gelato, so the flavor is much more intense and accurate than the flavor in icecream.
Tallis and his gelato.
Team Woomert and their gelati.
I also reached my record in "the smart game" in Gaeta with around thirty something. We stopped playing soon after.
ReplyDeleteHey Wesoly!
ReplyDeleteThat dog in the first post update was probably the cutest dog ever. I want it. What is "the smart game?" It sounds like something you would win at.
Love and miss ya tons!

No you MURDERED the Smart game soon after. Blood is dripping from your hands still.
ReplyDeleteIt was a mercy killing. There were too many of them in Italy for the game to work anymore.
ReplyDeleteBut you were so mean about it. Mercy killing should be done in a loving, caring way. You sir were exactly like the brat from Agnes Gray.
ReplyDeleteMy fav gelato flavor in Italy was stracciatelli or something like that. you should tell me what that means. it was like choco chip or some kind of vanilla with chocolate something heavenly.
ReplyDeleteOoooooooohhhh! Harsh, Liesl. So HARSH!!!
ReplyDeleteHannah I'm glad you came along and understood my comment. I doubt Wesley ever will.
