We walked back to the accommodation, taking photos and videoing a bit. This city is beautiful and always shows a different face. I still call it a mix of a mini Rome and Venice. Two in one.
I thought we went back, we were getting ready. Unfortunately, we couldn't bring a camera, because it is accepted to take videos or photos, but only with amateur equipment, and that is the phone. That's how we took a couple of shots, but I vowed not to upload phone pictures here, so I stick to it.
The evening was wonderful, the performance was magnificent! Beautiful scenery, fabulous sounds. Cool aperol spritz, champagne! This is really the event for me! I note that many people are not able to behave appropriately for the occasion, they come in rows and T-shirts. I wouldn't have let them in, especially since there was a dress code. Some fainted from the heat and were taken away by an ambulance (although maybe not from the heat, but from the sight of how few of them know good manners-LOL), but even that was handled professionally. Yes, by the way, there were a lot of paramedics, police, etc. at the scene, the access control system is just like at an airport.
When the performance was over (around half past one), we sat in the square for an aperol. Almost everyone did. When the performers left the arena and walked along the korz, everyone stood up one by one in the restaurants (outside) and were accompanied by loud ovations and applause. Goosebumps even now as I write these lines. Truly an eternal experience!
Walking towards the accommodation, we stopped at a bar, but only because there was atmospheric jazz playing and the boy serving was very cute. It was a pleasant, warm evening, everyone was hanging out outside, and we were alone for a long time. And I didn't have my camera!
The morning came quickly...and I called for coffee! What a drama! There was no vegetable milk, so for the first time in my life I drank it black, simply with sugar. And how delicious it is! I mean the coffee.
