Just wanted to share our recent vacation to Italy. It was actually our second time at Ca’Savio, Italy and the first was just last year, we enjoyed the place so much that we decided to come back and this time we stayed a bit longer.
Here are some of the highlights from our recent trip:
PIZZA..PIZZA..PIZZA!!!!
For a good start (and end), we went for dinner to the restaurant-pizzeria we discovered last year to verify that they have the best pizza we ever had…and it is indeed! The place was jam packed with locals and tourists alike, and it’s not even the peak season yet. I would say it is because of the great food with generous servings at really reasonable prices plus the nice ambiance.
SEAFOODS GALORE!
Another good reason for going back to this part of Italy is…SEAFOODS!!! Growing up in tropical islands of the Philippines, seafood is one of the things that I often crave for now that I am in Germany. So, while in vacation, I took advantage of having fresh seafoods (as opposed to frozen) available almost everywhere. Armin and I would go everyday to the supermarket that is so near our camping site to buy fresh seafood and cook them myself, usually grilled Armin’s current fave food is grilled pink salmon.
They have such a wide range of seafood variety that some are also too exotic for me…like this one…
TUESDAY MARKET!?
Our neighbors at the camp site, a super nice Austrian couple whose been coming to Ca’Savio every year for the last 25 years, told us that there is a big market every Tuesday in the neighboring town, Cavallino. Of course we went to have a look and they were not exaggerating when they said it was big…it took us some rounds to get around most of the stalls, where everything is being sold like bags, clothes, electronic stuff, kitchen wares and gadgets, fruits and vegetables. We came at around 12 noon which is a bit late because the market is open only until 1 pm but I was still able to some stuff (clothes of course) at really low price with needing to haggle for them.
NICE TO SEE YOU AGAIN VENICE!
And like the last time, being so near, we visited Venice once again to see the other parts we missed the last time we were there. Here are some pics!
THIS AND THAT...
I miss a travel to italy when my father in law passed away while enroute from Switzerland to Italy. Planning to take route to Venice, Florence, Assisi and Rome but was held back. I used booking.com for hotels. What agency do you use locals or US. Did you only use trains on inter city routes? Thanks.
Hello;
Do you guys book your tour through an agency or you do it yourself?

We do it ourselves...we do not want the time restriction of a tour and there are lots of information available for free to make your own arrangements directly and save money using agencies.
