A Weekend in Terracina

Rooted on the coast between the cities of Naples and Rome lies a holiday town of 50 000 people. Currently the town has bloomed to hold about a quarter million people. Terracina is a lovely place full of gelaterias cafes and a myriad of restaurants. Of course the highlights are the historic town centre on the hill close to the ancient temple of Jupiter, and, the boardwalk along the sea. The star of the town, however, is the sea - the Mediterranean Sea. Warm with nice gentle waves that can be played in and incredibly salty, it reminds me of Mombasa in the 90's. The sand is soft and hot, the air, hot and humid. People everywhere. And the sea - Warm, gentle, rolling, wavy - I could quite literally spend all day in it. It's really really lovely. Feeling blessed.
