Livorno.
I love it.
Here I grew up, here are my roots and my memories.
Here are my grandparents no longer live, but I still live here. A
they have to many things, lessons, love and affection bestowed without compromise.
Livorno is beautiful, but few know it.
has less than noble origins, very popular, and some even galeotte Questa "grezzaggine" the remains on him.
spirit a little heavy for its inhabitants is famous now. The
Vernacoliere made sure to spread it well pretty well everywhere. But the Leghorn are cute, big heart and very approachable.
the street you are sure that if you have problems with the stroller from one hand to someone who will always find it, especially some ladies of a certain age.
I said that Livorno is beautiful. Medici has a part, one built from scratch at his birth. It has the
Venice neighborhood that mimics the lagoon city, at least in the intentions of Sangallo and this is the place I prefer. There are parks
former villas of the nobility derived from past experience, the places of my childhood and now my children.
Many pine forests just outside of town and is surrounded by beautiful hills of the Mediterranean.
And then of course the sea. The perfume comes in the house, even if you live far away, like the sound of the sirens of ships, which I liked to listen to a child at night.
The sea of \u200b\u200bLivorno is complicated, however, at least for me.
is a sea of \u200b\u200bcity, not vacationers to speak.
And it's close to membership of the locals, who do not give in easily to tourists.
is difficult because it has no sand but rocks, and from an early age from Livorno are trained to walk on sharp rocks and slippery to alghetta.
luckily I've received excellent training and I must say that I get along great.
The rocks have many surprises for children.
fish that lurk there, crabs that you can put the pieces of bread, gangiletti, shrimp ponds that seem perfect little aquariums, in short, are adventurous!
But understand that going with small children can be complicated.
access points to beaches are few and are always quite full.
There is the wildest part with the rocks overlooking the sea where you get to climb ladders. It appears that here the place to go to the beach the real Livorno, those of "rock" in fact, not to be confused with the "land"!
Then there are the plants.
not imagine stuff like Ostia, where arrivals pay and you take an umbrella and a sun bed and go.
No. First of all, do not you take an umbrella, umbrellas are not many and they are all seasonal.
And then the plants are for Livorno!
They establish themselves in summer here.
Every family has its traditional establishment where every year they rent a car becomes an annex of their home.
neighborly relations are established with the various "blocks" summer long friendships are born in the years , Love and sometimes even frictions arise, of course.
the evening almost always eat at the factory.
Towards dinner time out tables, cool boxes and tables are organized.
to me like this and I've always missed this far from the sea. Then there
Tirrenia, where there is sand. But there are several ethical issues to attend this village.
First, is the province of Pisa ... ouch!
Second, it is frequented by ... mmmmmhh Pisa!
Third, there is the sand ... read above.
fourth, fifth, sixth, etc. ... in short, is not well for me and Livorno Livorno 100% are not going to
Tirrenia has always created some problems. Even my grandparents took me there just for the pine forest (infested with mosquitoes that are always tremendous massacred me) and beautiful parks for games that actually still have a great entertainment for children.
So all this to say that going to sea at Livorno (unless you do not have someone in a factory-equipped cabin) is not simple.
Every day we try a different sea. Obviously I need to load a stroller, bags, towels, reef shoes and everything else and every time I take the car.
Only those who live in Italy Viale can cross the street and go to sea, if it "his" mare that is in front of the house.
Now we chose a tiny little beach, where I wore the same grandparents.
has a bit of litter and the stupendous shallow water where children can splash around. The nano
but they do not want to wallow and prefers to climb all the rocks.
climbs, jumps, falls, sits down, throws stones. I limped to keep up.
would now be seen whether his "living" so hard the rock depends on its percentage Leghorn or the Valle d'Aosta ... or should be a lethal mix? The teenager is lucky to

is convinced he can also bestow tips gentlemen 60 years of fishing at least 55. Good thing the kids tolerate Livorno. Other parts had already been dismissed with a fine vaffa!
All because he caught a dozen times the trout pond with his uncle.
Last summer, Val d'Aosta wanted to fish for trout solo.in effects took the bait.
You have no idea though of what happened next to unhook and kill the poor fish.
