Having covered San Marino in the morning and early afternoon, we were back in Rimini. Rimini is a popular beach holiday destination. We will visit the beach before moving towards the olden parts of the city to have a look at the Tiberius Bridge and the Arch of Augustus.
Heading to the beach before the sun sets.
On our way to the beach.
The beach is very wide and empty; bright sunny day but chilly winds...

The Adriatic Sea and beach! Not crowded in Autumn

Penne Mare e monti (Penne with prawns and mushroom)
Gargenelli al Granchio (with crab meat)
Enjoying our dinner at a not-so-busy-restaurant, this ends the "relaxing" part of our holiday.
Our next major stop is the City of Florence (Firenze). On the way to Florence, we will be making a stop at Bologna, where the oldest university in the world is situated.
