Corsica - Calvi Evening on the Zitadella
the sunset we enjoyed up on the Citadella, from here we had an excellent view on the town of Calvi. Petra Dani`s co-worker came up with us and we could enjoy the last sunrays.... first of all the Citadella looks awesome when you see it from afar and also from up there equal if night or day: the view is fantastic... so this is perfect to sit and wait for the sunset.
and then we find the perfect rock to climb on, but we girls had trouble get down and what do the guys say: Where you go up - you can come down!
Also it feels like summer: from up here we can see snow on Corsica
  •  built by the Genose government: it fended off the French and Turkish raiders
  • it has 5 bastions 

our place in Les Residences Pinea
that`s where we got our place: a tiny kitchen a even tinier Sleepingéliving room....


Relaxing in Calvi
Sleeping in: today it`s Oct 13 - and finally we can sleep in. When we came down to the car we discovered that our red sports car was not locked - but yesterday when we were unloading it was constantly locked!!
So first things first: shopping - then a little bit exploring of the town and this time the Zitadella by day (because we already saw it by night!).
And then Saddy and Andi cook together: Spagetthi (what else)

Rain in Corsica
so yes we are in good hope: `yes I think it stops now`` - `When will it stop`
but it also has its good sides: so we can see an amazing rainbow....

Breakfast or lunch - Oct 14
today we had breakfast and as soon as we were finished we had lunch... because the rain did not motivate us to do something - even we can see the snow on the mountain
so a visit in I`ll rouse - but I think the best was the coffee - then we visited the lighthouse and had supper with Dani in Pine: that means Petra eats with us and Dani was our server!

Madonna by night
and as night activity Andi wanted to run to the Madonna, but he did end up on the dump, turns around and good thing we have cell phones: so we got a call... because we went by car!!
  •  the Capu di a veta is a little chapel with a Madonna on a rock - built in 1479
