Coastal Train Ride

The train station at Rimini


 The train ride down the Adriatic coast was right on the coast. We thoroughly enjoyed watching the view go by, and we notice lots of RVs. Some just parked, some in nice looking RV parks.





26 hours of travel. Train from Rimini to Bari, overnight bus from Bari to Ferry and Messina, train to Catania where we picked up rental car for the last leg. Too much!

We can sleep on the train - he said.  We can sleep on the bus - she said. 

Nope - don't count on it. The overnight bus ride was a bit brutal. We expected it and took it on anyway. But - for future reference ... Don't do that again!

We had several hours to kill in Bari. Found a nice place for dinner, then hung out at the bus station waiting for our midnight bus. People watching at the bus/train station was really quite entertaining and the fountain was beautiful



That shot is also a great example at how good our phones are at night photography. Here's a shot without the night-shot option.


It was a great place to hang out
