A trip in Maremma: Talamone, Orbetello and Capalbio Marina
Today I bring to you in three beautiful places that are located in the Grosseto Maremma: Talamone, Orbetello and "Capalbio Marina".
The first stop was Talamone. We arrive at the harbor, where easily found parking (both blue lines, then a fee, both with white stripes and therefore free). After the usual photos to panorama, with the island of Giglio in the background, we arrive at a crossroads: on the one hand, the viewpoint and the other walls with a door to enter the old town: we decide to go to the lookout outside the walls, but found nothing different from other cars when viewed from the harbor. So we are reaching the door, noting that it seems that has been opened very recently. The walls were also being restored and then covered for much of the scaffolding (the bartender for one of several local café told us that the work going on since last summer). Talamone knew that was destroyed during the war and so we knew we would find almost all new homes. So we walked briskly on the door and we got to Piazza Garibaldi Garibaldi: we found them, dare I say "of course", a bust of Garibaldi and a church fenced (another thing being restored). We went running toward the castle, along a staircase very cute, short and to those "made of stones" (pass the word ... let's say that not one of those steps "modern" retains its charm in short). From there we could enjoy a different scenery and enchanting really deserved some pictures.
So we left for Orbetello, with the intention of stopping there to eat. Arrived in the long lagoon of Orbetello we parked the car and we sat there with our sandwiches. If you do not want to sit right next to the water there are also several benches (even in sunlight, if you want to add the feed the sun). The place is very quiet and beautiful, there are games for children and a purpose to bring the dogs (just on Saturdays from 06 to 15 the weekly market and therefore can not access them by car. With the car we passed the "front door" in the old country. The center itself is a pedestrian, quind you leave the car out (there are many free and paid parking is: if you arrive during peak hours there's sure to find parking. Inside you will find small but charming streets, shops, cafes with outdoor seating, restaurants and many other things for your enjoyment. If you have kids, you can get them in the cooler hours in the park that exists between the true center and port in the wall: you'll recognize it because it's really big and there are also games for their enjoyment.
We headed quickly toward "Capalbio Marina", which is between Capalbio and Ansedonia, in the village of Playa peat. The choice was not random: they went to sea when a child, I spent about a month's holiday in Tuscany. There was wind and we then repaired the dunes: every so often, however, we left the cool fresh breeze as the sun was hot! After a good hour of sun and tranquility, given that we were just across the beach, we returned to the car.
We arrived to the Tarot Garden, but given the amount of people outside (a couple of schools quite numerous) we decided, at least this time, skip the tour. We took the wrong road, but we ended up down a small dirt road always immersed in the green (greener than you can imagine). So, back on the Aurelia, we have taken the direction of Rome.
