Our day started out with a boat ride along the coast of Viesta on the Gargano peninsula.
This is the town of Viesta.
This is a picture of our hotel, the Hotel Seggio. Our room is on the top floor (above the sign) in the upper left corner with a balcony.
There is a lot of limestone in this area ...
.... with lots of arches and caves, some of which we explored in the boat.
This particular cave is called the "Grotta dei Pomodori" (grotto of tomatoes), so named because of the red anemonies that cling to the walls.
These structures, called trabucchi, are ancient fishing platforms, dating back to the 18th century.
After the boat ride we came back to our hotel for a pasta making demonstration.
In the afternoon we walked around town looking at the interesting alleys. There are often a few tables in the alleys associated with a local restaurant.
This is the view from our balcony after dinner.
