After a nice visit to blog friends in Provence, it was time for us to roll south towards Le Lavandou on the French coast, Côte d'Azur. The plan is to visit the islands that are located here, which are usually called the "Golden Islands". But before that there was driving on dramatic mountain roads and an evening swim at a very charming and beautiful beach.

One of the reasons we went back to Cannes and the French Riviera, was that we wanted to make a boat trip to Sainte-Marguerite, which we missed the last time we were here.

Somehow this feels like the genuine and real Italy, far from the touristy parasol beaches on the coasts.

Now we have spent two lovely days at hotel Il Gabbiano, just next to Lake Trasimeno in Umbria. We have relaxed by the pool and eaten super good pizza, and we have also had time to make a boat trip to the largest island in Lake Trasimeno, namely Isola Polvese.

It is not difficult to understand why Chioggia in Italy is called Little Venice. Like Venice, Chioggia is a city of canals, bridges and boats. Here you can wander around medieval houses in charming neighbourhoods, but without the crowds of tourists that Venice has.
