Back from the beach, another enjoyable few hours listening to the waves and totally chilling.
But something quite surreal happened. Two older Italian men walked passed me and sat down not too far away. They were probably around 70 years old. One was wearing a t-shirt, shorts and sandals. The other, not a word of a lie, was wearing formal derby shoes (polished), black trousers, white shirt, bow tie and waistcoat. I'll presume for now that he left the jacket in the car.
They then proceeded to strip off and go for a swim. When they returned to the beach the former suited one offers a "ciao buongiorno" in my direction and all I think of replying with was "mare e freddo?" He replies it was but still nice. He gets back this spot, sunbathes for an hour or so, redresses and leaves. Again, in his formal attire.
That's how the Italians do it!
