MOBY GOES TO TURKEY. A tam and pups adventure.

These wee dog suits are fantastic I've used them with all my dogs over the last 10+ years and they are brilliant, so good in fact when it gets really warm my dogs practically jump into them to cool of, first things I pack in the van before every trip

We have a field opposite us that used to do clay pigeon shooting every Sunday so when our first puppy came to us he soon got used to it and he was never frightened of fireworks after that.

Some of the worst storms I've ever seen have been on the Italian lakes in summer, seen houses set fire by lightening.

You’ve been to Croatia Lenny, nearly every building there has massive lightning strips running down them… I was fascinated by how many there were and thought they must get a lot of lightning..⚡️⚡️⚡️
 
Saw the most wonderful storm while at lake Garda about 20 years ago, we were there with friends and sitting outside under the canopy to watch. We were ushered inside while canopy was taken in much to our disappointment.
Saw the devastation on the other side of the lake next day.

Been a very very long day driving today ...we headed off at 11am and that's me only just parked up on the outskirts of rimini, shite spot ...I'm under a bridge, but options were limited . Off to feed the mutts and watch a bit telly before bed. Heading to padua tomorrow to speak to the vet.
 
I see things have got even worse in Rimini, 20/30 years ago it was a holiday place mentioned where you were allocated a beach seat & parasol in a back row, than as the days progressed you worked you way toward the front row!
Had a look on Google Earth at Rimini, and the satellite view of the beach, shows endless rows of parasols as far as you can see north to south!...what a nightmare of a holiday, I am surprised anyone is happy these days to be in such a packed place for their annual leave...at any price!
I think rain is forecast further up north at Padua, should be welcomed by you, but that being close to Venice it will be packed out this time of year I bet, harder to find any quiet spots especially on a beach.
Good luck, I hope its not too hard for you to find a decent overnight spot.

The entire coast of Italy seems to be like that. I've never seen so many parasols.. not my idea of a holiday. I have to say its very boring too . It seems nice architecture died with the Romans.... its now just bland, dirty and a shit hole. And one big traffic jam. Can't believe I drove nearly 9 hours today to do 200 miles. The roads are terrible...far worse than UK main roads and the drivers are ridiculous. 50kmh limit most of it with the odd bit at 70, 90kmh . Toll roads possibly better but expensive, diesel dearer than Greece...varies between €1.65 and €1.80 ...I managed to get it at €1.64.9 by fluke as I missed a junction with satnav. Lpg cheaper at 0.69L

I did the east coast back in 2020 or 21 i can't remember which and I thought it was crap then lol. San Marino was nice from memory but didn't like the rest. The west coast was a bit nicer and I think the south and sicily is meant to be nice. But overall Its a bit meh lol

Up around the dolomites was nice though and that's where I'm heading after I'm tried my luck with this vet to get blu's titre done.

I think the best bits looking at Google are places you wouldn't take a motorhome . Some of the picturesque wee villages clinging to the cliffs etc. You can't get near or it costs an arm and a leg. The campsites I passed on the coastroad yesterday were awful ... the awnings were all touching the next van .. there was definitely not space to sit outside except under the awning . Not my idea of a holiday.

But that said my parking spot last night was far from idyllic lol
