Sunset over Cecina

If you say it wrong, it sounds like 'Chechnya'...but this is not a torn rebel state in the former Soviet Union.

Went to a rather friendly seafood restaurant tonight with the other engineers in the meeting, and at this point I should point out that I don't eat fish. When I mentioned this, they said I wouldn't be eating tonight!

They weren't quite that cruel - and not so cruel that they made me eat fish - and they prepared me some amazingly simple, yet delicious meals: Prosciutto and Melon, spaghetti with tomatoes, and a lovely Bistecca alla Fiorentina! The others all got bizarre fish bits, fish bits in pasta...it was amusing!

Got a few photos today, but unfortunately, the ones of the waiter taking the top off the bottle of wine (fizzy) with a sword didn't quite work with my timing! This is a nice sunset though, and in the balmy air, made for quite an enjoyable evening :)
