All day today, rain clouds were on the horizon. Like a
developing sneeze that never materializes, the rain never came. Dark clouds
kept circling, with the occasional part for a sun ray to sneak through, and the
beach was vacant of people. I went down this morning and laid on the lounger
for a bit, but it was windy and pretty cold so I just read until it was time
for lunch at Zia’s, which was delicious.
On my way back home, I noticed something that did
materialize, the Circo Orfei. The traveling circus is back in Campomarino
putting on a Saturday through Tuesday spetaccolo. Monday is the big summer
holiday, Ferragosto, so the town is beginning to fill up. Sadly, we’ve had a
decent amount of bad weather recently between rain, clouds, and wind, that the
beach has not gotten filled more than a day or two. Monday is supposed to be
sunny and hot, so that will likely change.
