Wedding

Sea – Wedding – Hiking

It was a well deserved sleep until the breakfast on Saturday 21st of June a day D for our friends Miska and Tomas who invited us to their wonderful Tuscany wedding.

From the night driving before, there is at least 1 thing to remember. That’s when we saw a porcupine on the road, the first one in a wild life, yes in Tuscany as well as the second one minutes later.

As usually we needed to hurry also for the wedding ceremony. Getting off the parking shelter I managed to damage our sun blind, but got into the church on time for the ceremony.

The wedding celebration took place in the mentioned Castello di Meleto and its surrounding terraces. With great music, super tasty food and nice weather, this was a perfect outdoor wedding.

A live music band, applied also in the church was changed by a DJ from time to time to ignite even more people for dancing. A group of about 20 Macedonian guys were dancing nonstop.

The dinner also served on a terrace outside by the castle which was nicely illuminated, created even more of the Italian wedding atmosphere. The highlight of the celebration came after the dinner, with very popular Slovak music band = Para performing full half unplugged concert connecting all the guests for another entertainment.  

We did not last until the very end, but enjoyed the whole wedding day as much as we could.

Next day on Sunday, we decided to rest at the villa premises bit longer before leaving the Tuscany for next adventure. In the late afternoon we headed towards Dolomites, Latemar and specifically Pampeago.

Sea – Wedding – Hiking

Before our June adventure could even start, a bit of a research had to been done. As we knew we wanted to try a trip with a camper a firstly we reviewed some of the caravan renting companies. Very easily we decided for roadsurfer and booked our camper for 10 days from 18th of June until 28th in advance. We studied all the camper functionality, gathered the needed equipment and were looking forward.

My ECMS project was successfully deployed to PROD on 15th of June, so on Wednesday, 18th roughly at 16:30 were already ready to pick up our camper. There were some technical difficulties at the office some at the end we lost almost 1,5 hours prior to departure from Graz. As usually, I need to hurry on the highway, this time driving a camper. Yes, we were very lucky to arrive to Garden Paradiso camp in Cavallino, IT some 10 minutes before 23:00 – a checking deadline. It took us some time to find our spot, which turned out to be one of the best places overall, but we managed.

During Thursday we rested well and enjoyed the great campsite as well as its beach.  Cavallino, or Cavallino – Treporti is a sea side resort of Veneto district just by the Laguna Veneta with several campsites and actually only few hotels.

On Friday we received some more sunbathing treatment as well as relax on the beach beds. Recharged all of our sources we got ready for Cavallino departure. Goal of our evening journey was more 350km away, a place called Castello di Meleto in Chianti, in Tuscany.

We arrived very late, approximately at 01:00 and needed to wake up a staff member in a villa to guide us to another villa where we had our room.
