Another Day in Paradise

Thursday, May 18, 2017
Brindisi, Puglia, Italy
It was another amazing day.  

 First let me just say that I think my post had an impact on the European sleep schedule, because last night they slept at the right time, I slept straight from 8:00 until 7 :30 with the couple minutes after Dad's alarm went off at 5am .  

The Day started with the Borgo breakfast buffet. It was filled with all kinds of delicious foods: Everything from tons of fresh fruits and juices, to omelets, and a plethora of pastries. I had some banana mixed with egg yolks... Yum!  

After breakfast we went down to the beach, where we spent the rest of the day getting "abbronzato". My mom and Babbo went swimming, but the water was too cold for Me and Dad (we just hung out on the steps).  

After the beach it was time to eat again, we decided to go into the nearby town of Savelletri. It's a quaint little fishing village filled with, what else, fresh fish restaurants. We ended up at this little place called Ristorante da Maddalena. We had the whole place to ourselves, so I could be as loud as I wanted. Of course I ended up tiring myself out passed out at the table again. While I slept, everyone enjoyed a dinner highlighted by a giant tray of fried shrimp, calamari, octopus, and langostinos. Mom said it was the best dish so far on the trip, and for Mom to say that about a fried food dish you know it had to be good.  

After dinner it was time to head back to the Borgo and get to sleep. Unfortunately, since I slept all during dinner, I am not tired now, so... we'll see how that goes.  

 FYI, It's about midnight now and I am still writing this, so I think you can guess how it is going.

I think this trip is really going to make sleep fun for the next couple months, but it will be worth it.
