Wild poppies at the side of the road on the way to the east coast.
When we got to Rimini we found a hotel at the 'beach front' and our window looked out due east over the Adriatic. As you can see a well made promenade with bike path on the far side and then, separating the hoi polloi from the beach - concessions. No doubt some Italian politicians made lots of money in coming up with this idea. Not even the Gold Coast is this gauche!
Looking slightly north of east over the Adriatic
Due east - directly across from our hotel. Lovely bike path though.
Looking south-east - concessions as far as you can see.
South-south-east - all hotels and concessions. Like the Gold Coast but worse.
Fortunately the holiday season had not begun otherwise the place would be unbearable.
