La Spezia - Italy

What a life

We stayed overnight on the way to Rome in La Spezia.

La Spezia is a city in the Liguria region of northern Italy, at the head of La Spezia Gulf. It is one of the major Italian military and commercial harbours, located between Genoa and Pisa on the Tyrrhenian Sea.
It has no truly remarkable historic or architectural features, apart from the modern (circa 1960) Cristo Re alla Spezia Cathedral and the Lia Art Museum.  It was also the main harbour for the German Uboats operating in the Mediterranean Sea during WW2.

We had the most remarkable sea food pasta for dinner.  I'd thought I was in heaven. Of course Annette had two serves of Panna Cotta Caramel.
