19.7.98 - Another long drive towards the south of Italy. They are mad drivers over here, you have to drive very carefully. Drove through some lovely country but decided to push on towards Brindisi. What a bad move came to some terrible areas, real slums. Finally stumbled across resort style accommodation. Took a punt and got the last room, clean and comfortable. The boys had a swim in the pool and the sea. No sand, lots of rocks and cement, Christian cut his foot on some rocks. The boys need to wear their surf shoes.

Day 24 - Today we drove to Giovinazzo and stayed in a hotel called Club Lafayette. It was right on the beach and had a big pool because the beach was all rocky and polluted. In the pool you had to wear a little cap because head lice is really bad in Europe. They had soccer tables that josh and I played for a little before going to the sea water. The beaches in Europe have white stones and washed up seaweed on the shore. At night we had a party, it had fireworks, food music dancing and a lot of waiters serving about ten meals at a time.

Day 24 - We got up early and we started to drive to Brindisi. On the way we stopped a food place and the toilets were awful. We went a bit further and we ate there. I had a pizza and Christian and mum had a toasted sandwich and we bought things to play with in the car. We didn't make it to Brindisi so we stayed at a beach resort and it had two plastic soccer tables. When we got down to the pool we had top buy a cap and they wouldn't let you wear a swim shirt. After the pool closed we went down to the beach and had a swim there. When we got back to the room we got dressed again to got to a party at the pool. When we got to the party the food was nice and the fireworks were good.
