The food has been unbelievable - we have been enjoying the hospitality of Santo's relatives on his mother's side. Ilenya, her husband Fabio and their daughter Vitoria.
Breakfast at a cafe consists of Italian cappuccino and brioche - nutella, cream or marmalade.
Lunch between 1 and 2 consists of fresh buffala mozzarella, lasagne, prosciutto, fresh ricotta with crushed pistachios, salad, rice ball and roasted veggies.
Dinner occurs at 8 or later. Always start with antipasta - which is a meal in itself. Sometimes a seafood platter or pasta or both and maybe a few more dishes too. Pizza was unbelievable - toppings you would not expect: tuna and onion, eggplant and zucchini, potato, as well as the traditional margheritta. Arrosticini - lamb on a skewer - roasted on the grill. Arrosticini is a dish Pescara is known for.
And then dessert.
Ilenya and Fabio would go home to put Vitorria to bed ... and we would walk ... at least a couple of miles - and maybe a swim in the ocean for the boys.
