Return journey

Just a quick update.We're almost home. Stopped close to Mantova for a nightband tomorrow we will arrive in Gramizzola. We kind of rushed through all the countries because we want to go to Sardegna next week.🙂
I had a lovely time visiting my uni friends in Łódź. The girls didn't change a bit and it's always crazy and fun to be around them since I was always the quiet one.😉
After that our next stop was Wieliczka - the UNESCO site- salt mine in Poland. It was quite scary thinking to be 130 m under earth but breath taking seeing those incredible rooms and sculptures made of salt! There were even 2 underground lakes. The tourist part goes only to level 3 but the whole mine has 8 levels and goes even deeper. In total we did 800 steps.Thank god there was a lift to take us up at the end!It kind of felt like being in Moria- the underground kingdom of dwarfes in the Lord of the rings!
We only had one stop in Hungary and we went to a small thermal baths. Hungary is full of them. There were a lot of older people chilling and drinking beer. Think me and Franco were the youngest 🤣. We got a bargain of 5 euros for both tickets so we also had a shower! Never enough opportunities to have a shower cose you always on the water saving quest in camper!
Yesterday we past Kobarid town in Slovenia and stopped to have a small walk along Soca- river. Unfortunately we decided to have an overnight stop on the Italian side since it was only 12 km away and as I mentioned before Slovenia is not very friendly towards wild camping. We stopped at Natisone river close to the village of Stupizza and it's a great place for trekking, swimming and climbing unfortunately a bit abandoned. 
Franco couldn't believe his eyes when he saw a 3 kg trout and since it's a no kill zone he was heartbroken but not long now and he can fish again in Sardegna!!!

From mountains to the sea

Image
Yesterday we've celebrated San Valentine's day (although we celebrate it every day😛🙂). We've decided it would be a good excuse to open the special bottle we've got earlier: Amarone della Valpolicella Since everyone says it's a special wine that's not very cheap, and Franco and I never tried it, we were very excited to taste it. Hmm🤔It was good but no fireworks, maybe we should have done that sommelier course🤣 Than we found this lovely, quiet spot for the evening( still in Parco della Maiella). And this morning we woke up to this beautiful sunrise: Now, we're on our way to Puglia, to visit our friends and take the ferry to Greece. We're staying on SS16 coastal route and hopefully arrive in Melendugno on Saturday. For tonight ,we stopped at the sea in  Parco del Gargano, close to Lago di Varano.
