We have been enjoying gorgeous scenery over breakfast at Calanica. It doesn't get any better! We drove into town and saw the Duomo cathedral -- dating back to the 12th century. It is famous for stunning mosaics. The cathedral was mobbed with tourists in tour groups and some power-that-be at the church basically started yelling at them to shut up. As we walked out, I realized that my tank top was probably not appropriate attire as there was a table of shawls with a collection box next to it. Oh well. I snuck out before being busted.
We stopped for coffee near the water and happened to catch an air show right before our eyes with 4 stunt planes. We had lunch at a restaurant called Kentia (it turned out to be our favorite meal during the trip). I ordered pineapple for dessert and a few minutes later saw the waiter walking back up the street toward the restaurant, carrying a pineapple. It was fresh!
We've been eating our dinners at Calanica, as we're on half-board. I'm always looking forward to the ever-changing buffet of appetizer/salads. But, having two courses and dessert on top of that is A LOT of food for me. At least the walk up the hill from the restaurant to our bungalow helps a little bit.
