Reggio Calabria

Even though there are creepy men here too, I like it in Reggio Calabria.
I really like the B & B I am staying at (although it was quite noisy last night but my room is above a restaurant) and had a delicious meal last night at the restaurant downstairs, and went back for lunch today double yum.

my room is upstairs, 1st on the left

Reggio Calabria last night from my balcony

I've been for a walk along the main drag this morning - there were mostly men walking up and down the street, I suspect the women were in church. I was followed by a few dirty old things, one I lost on the escalator going up the hill - he followed me up the first one so I stopped at the top of that one and pretended to be fiddling with something in my bag and he had to keep going, I waited until he was at the end of the next excalator and then I got on it but the dirty old thing stopped at the top and didnt get on the next one so when I got to the top of that one I turned around and came straight down again. It annoyed me that I didn't get to the top of the hill though, but I lost him and that was the objective. There will be families out and about this afternoon so I will try again then.

surprisingly, there are churches here!

Then I got to the end of the main drag and went down to the espalanade where I was followed by another creep but I told him where to go, and he stopped following me because I started walking with another woman then she went off down to the beach and buggar me if another one didn't start following me!!! I know these creeps are only human but jesus it gets tiring!!! So, I aimed my camera at him and took his photo! He turned and went the other direction very fast, as did the next one who stopped beside me as I was taking some photos across the water at Sicilia when I pointed my camera at him he soon took off too!
Creeps.

I've just been back to the restaurant downstairs for lunch, time for siesta then I will get my gear together ready for my taxi at 9.15 in the morning to the ferry terminal where I get the ferry to Messina, then the train to Palermo. Sicilia, here I come!
