С сестрой в Италии, Лидо ди Езоло With sister in Italy, Lido di Jesolo

We rested with my sister in Italy, in the town of Lido di Jesolo, at the BRIONI MARE hotel from July 25 to August 7.2010. A very good hotel, cozy, with excellent cuisine. We went almost at random, there was no time to sit on the Internet for a long time and read the reviews, we trusted the advice of the manager Natalie Tour, since it was not the first time we went with them. Met and accommodated us without unpleasant surprises. Half an hour after check-in, we already made the first swim. The water was very warm throughout the stay. The hotel stands literally on the beach with the cleanest beach and comfortable sunbeds. A walking path stretches for several kilometers along the beach, along which it is pleasant to take a promenade after dinner, enjoying the sea air.

The interior of the hotel is beautifully decorated. The rooms are spacious, not shabby by generations of previous guests, the furniture looks like new, the plumbing is functioning. Cleaned the room and changed towels daily.

Excellent Italian cuisine both in the hotel restaurant and in establishments located nearby, where we sometimes dined for a change, did not leave us indifferent. Traditional notions that the Italian table is pasta and pizza have been shattered to the ground by local chefs, who have turned my sister and me into loyal adherents. Fish dishes, pasta with seafood, cheeses and dry-cured meat delicacies, tiramisu (real, not what they give out in our cafe) - all this has become a serious threat to our figures. Now, upon our return, we will have to sit on a buckwheat mono-diet for a month)

After spending the first three days swimming and sunbathing, we made several walks and travels. First, of course, we visited the Lido di Jesolo itself. It stretches along the beach for a dozen kilometers, like many resort towns in Italy. It is more convenient to move around on a bicycle, from square to square.
A large number of restaurants, pizzerias, disco, shops.

We went twice to Venice, less than an hour away and twenty euros round trip. You can go by bus, and then by boat - very picturesque when the city rises in front of you from the sea. Now I really want to spend at least a week there, maybe next year. We could not resist the excursion to Shakespeare's Verona. We looked at Piazza Maggiore in Bologna, the ancient university and the Cathedral of St. Petronio where the coronation of Charles V took place. Unfortunately, we didn’t have time to see everything we wanted in two weeks: it’s not far from the Dolomites (you can go to the luxurious mountain resort town of Cortina D ' Ampezzo), and not so far to Lake Garda, and to Padua. Next year, if everything goes well, we will rent a car, then mobility will increase, and we will make up for it)))
