There is work done here - olive groves, fields of artichokes, fishing. Here is a farmer finishing up in a field. And it is only 10 a.m.



Lovely small towns abound.



In Santa Marina de Leuca.




And... Orecchiette for lunch!



Highlight of the day
The time trial worthy sprint back to Gallipoli. Because, just because.
