La Spezia, Long Enough To Eat and Pack

This hotel doesn't really have room service, or it is a safe bet that would have been our plan for dinner. However, Pall had recommended a place here that does something called panigacci, which is basically flat bread with a selection of meats and cheeses.  So be impressed people, another meal that was neither pizza nor pasta.  

We had our front desk guy make us a reservation (first available, 9:15) and then caught a very short nap before walking over.  We got there to find the staff had no English, but we managed through a combination of my meager Italian and pointing and gesturing.

Really good food, though I spent a lot of time watching the table behind us and reporting on what they were doing.  "Okay, he's taken a piece of meat and put it on his tray.  Now he's tearing off a piece of bread.  She's folded a piece of bread around her meat."  I think I may have a future in play-by-play.  This is how awesome my hair looks after I let it dry wild.

After dinner we got back to the hotel and had to pack, for what is hopefully the second-to-last time before we come home.  Tomorrow's train leaves at 0650.  Ugh.

Goodnight from La Spezia.
Marty and Lyle
