Day 3: Chioggia - Ravenna
Having had a great host that decided to host on terms "my alarm clock goes off at 6:30" it was perfect. I did not had to wake up the host with my smoothee maker. After a breakfast I took some time to see Chioggia and experience the wave of history from our predecessors. Each Venitian town has its own character and Chioggia is no different. After a brioch I was ready to take the road again. Before I realized or knew, I was on the most dangerous road flying toward Ravenna. Luch were leftovers from a nice dinner prepared from Federico. Yummy snack right before the traffic works. I surely thought that was the end for me. A packed road with a meter in a side for a secure ride, and luckily, I made it to Ravenna very fast and in one piece.
I came surprides that the beauty and importance of Ravenna is hidden by sand beach and Mirabilandia. A marvolous mosaic city that keeps good care of its heritage. Once arrived, I met with my next host, Ilaria, who was vwry friendly and full of life. Not only she directed me to great places, but involved me in dinner preparation for a putluch with her friends. It was great, but my Italian is not that great to be able to crack jokes with them. Nontheless, the 3 italian speaking days have improved it slightly.
The funny things was that on the way to her friends and back, I made more tradfic violations that I did in the past year, but this time, without a ticket... it seems cyclerr are extremely important part of Italian life.
One more thing, Ravenna is a main city close to thw birth place of Mussollini, and the fascist perion went to great lenght to add arhitectual crime buildings to the city.
This is all for today.... new adventures are on the way.
