Tam and Toby ~~ Hunting Zorba .....Take two.

[gus-lopez]

If you around the back streets prices aren't to bad.
Got pressured to go on a gondola by wife and daughter €70 I think from memory, 15 years later I can hardly remember going in it.

I think you can add a 1 on front of that now, if not a 2 ?

No , still the same thought it was 80 euros last time we went 2 years ago, but wasn't sure so looked it up , but I think we are hijacking Northernraider thread so will leave it with this screenshot.

Cheers

Well im no longer in italy ..we are now in country number 8 .....another 4 hour bloody drive ....in the rain and mist to start with but it dried up eventually ...both satnavs took me an interesting route through some very tight villages but no dramas.

You'll be back in Italy soon no doubt .
I think its such a shame you're rushing though these countries with barely a glance at what they have to offer...
But I guess you have a sketch of a plan, what you want to do.
Otherwise, this thread might be called 'hunting musolini'

So im now in the republic of San Marino.....i bought a convertible from here once although i had it delivered to Scotland free of charge so ive not been here before.
I decided against driving to pisa as to be honest folk on here made out it wasn't that great and by googling it apart from the tower there wasn't much about. And it was further out of my way and everywhere takes an age to get to in this country. 96 miles today took 4 hours.

So San Marino looked interesting and back in the right direction.
So i got here around 18.30 im parked up on the sosta with around 10 other motorhomes .......planning to walk up the top tomorrow the view is meant to be fantastic so hoping its dry.

 

[Langtoftlad]

Of course you're knacked, you're "doing" a country every few days...
Europe is small, but not that small.

 

[chaser]

How the hell are you in San Marino, thought you was heading for Pisa.?

 

[Northernraider]

You all told me pisa was shit.....so i decided why waste a day there

Whereas San Marino is the most underrated place within italy

 

[Langtoftlad]

Based on your scheduling, Pisa was probably good for the best part of 20 minutes

[Onemanandhisdog]

Have you come back through the tunnel Tam, it's raining so hard I can't get a satellite signal!!

To be pedantic San Marino is not country its a princepality of Italy.

Actually its not

It states its a country

Its apparently not in the eu either

Which is weird as it has no border control

There's a lot of guards about where you go through the arch though.

Beat me to it - it is a Republic and only shares it's language with Italy

 

[olley]

It's got a seat at the U.N. so is internationally recognised as a country

Polar steps recognised it as a country despite it not counting Scotland and England as 2 countries ..... shocking

 

[olley]

Scotland is just northern county of England isn't it?
