Generally the road we followed from Modena to Parma
was flat and passed through many towns and roundabouts whilst the speed limit is constantly changing from as low as 50 to a high of 90kmh.
Parma is a small town but the attraction we knew we needed to see was the Parma Cathedral as this was the place we had read and seen the most of during our research. Other than the Cathedral there are other attractions, but when pressed for time we find it is best to spend more time in one place than little time in many places.
We had a nice lunch, and then to stretch the legs wandered the little town and its streets.

Sneaky photo of the practice session. |
Finally we arrived in the area of LaSpezia, but specifically in our home for the next 6 nights in the town of Arcola. The weather has dropped a little in temperature but a little more humid. We had some time after check in to drive into LaSpezia and have a look at the waterfront.
Our accommodation is very nice, it is on the mountain top with views overlooking the olive groves and the harbor city of LaSpezia. I promise some photos are on the way in the next day or two.
Tomorrow, Five Lands
Had one of the nicest meals there. Fresh sardines, with just a touch of leon and olive oil at a restaurant where the bus drivers, and the local seniors, have their lunch.
