@derthomas hey, welcome! Where are you staying?

derthomas, 10 months ago

@heavymetalrick Thank you! In Lignano Sabbiadoro. This is an ideal place to stay with kids, although quite touristy 😁

heavymetalrick, 10 months ago

@derthomas haha yes, you're right on both things! I'm from the opposite side of Italy so I'm biased, but you should visit the Tyrrhenian coast: amazing sea and family-friendly as well 😄

derthomas, 10 months ago

@heavymetalrick It is definitely tempting, but a bit far to drive. My wife and I are huge Italy fans and I bet that we will go at some point!

heavymetalrick, 10 months ago

@derthomas true, coming from the north it's a long drive. Luckily though, the trains are way better along the west coastline, so if you ever decide to visit, consider them 😉 enjoy the sun!!

@derthomas Best Australian bloke voice - How did the car handle the trip?

derthomas, 10 months ago

@TG_Esq we went with our old one which knows the route quite well by now.

TG_Esq, 10 months ago

@derthomas Probably a good decision for that distance.

derthomas, 10 months ago

@TG_Esq I think it would have been fine, one 30 minute charging stop should have been enough. It's just that the old car has a much bigger trunk, and we tend to bring our whole household with us 😂

TG_Esq, 10 months ago

@derthomas Ah yes, I'm very familiar with the how many months are we going away for? question from wekend trips to the MIL (100 kms from home) - when packing the car.

derthomas, 10 months ago

@TG_Esq oh yes 😂

@Kitty thank you! Haha, I think @neurothing might live a bit further south, we're at the northern most part of the Adria.

@derthomas @Kitty Yeah, there are more than 500 km between us 😆 . You are in Veneto region, while I live in Latium (southern part of it)
