In Milan there are 45 degrees and the old people die of heat. Li 'there is a breeze, 24 degrees is fine, the weather is nice, and you wake up with birds that are on cip cip trees. our neighbors, of Liverpool, say they are happy and that 'the place more' beautiful in the world and are lucky to be there 'rather than in the crush of beaches.

reactions Grace: What a bore, it was better to stay in Milan, with all that there 'to see, from Laurie Anderson to Negramaro. Here, nothing happens, I have nobody to talk to, I think just for kids, let me recharge the phone at least talk to my friends.

Fortunately, our friend and 'partner. It has a small boat, but enough to have the right to be. Table for ten people, including six children, who rushed over to 'shoot on the long buffet of seafood appetizers and three waitresses take careful note, and at the end of dinner, damn, they say to children: "You want to go to the' a see that there are ice cream? ". Account hallucinating, Grace's comment: "What a place to be old."

2) days at sea together with the San Fruttuoso boat! What a wonderful initiative!

Account: boat, umbrella and sun in San Fruttuoso, visit to the Christ of the Abyss, lunch in a typical seafood restaurant under thatched hut on the beach (stock exchange), breakfast before you start the boat, ice cream and after ' returned to the boat, parking: € 210. Come back

Grace announces: "I'm going to the grocery store, at home there 'nothing to eat", following the announcement by the proverbial puff which means "If I do not think, here, to make spending, the whole family is on my shoulders ...".

spending hard, inexplicably, two hours, and although the village ' and small shops are three: fresh pasta, fish market, all the rest. Two hours during which they are alone to handle wet, dry, coatings, arguments, compulsive buying stickers and lollies, and end of expenditure Grace shows a pair of designer flip flops by saying, with a puff of order: "What an effort ! should be ', we sit down to take a bell'aperitivo?

You share, I Party!

My father 92 years old and, with his Swedish wife, spends his summers in a grove on the seashore in southern Sweden, where they built a lovely wooden house in the middle of nowhere. Each year at the beginning of summer ', we are practically forced to visit them for a week, with the whole family. This custom is happy grandparents who see their grandchildren, and grandchildren, playing soccer, see the squirrels, and eat all the rubbish that we usually avoid. All
happy except Grace. Which woman in the south, can not stand being in a place where the sea is cold as hell, can not stand being in a forest far from any form of social life, and can not stand having to pack up, in June, with inside the jackets and things to winter. Pero 'touches, so', for all six months ago I weighed that he had sacrificed to go there, and for the six months before I accused who will sacrifice 'again next year. A full year of reproach for a few days away.

And here two days before departure, scheduled for June 9. Everything organized, luggage, airline tickets, everything. I go to the Springsteen concert at the Forum, and while I wait you start the phone rings. E 'Grace. "Alexander has 39 of fever." Okay, 'flounder', I think. But from then on in the mind of Grace triggered a frantic re-scheduling. The next morning, in a fast sequence, go to the doctor and travel agent ', and quick diagnosis: "You can not 'start the child in these conditions."
So what do we do? My father will remain 'too bad. The solution and Grace 'already' ready, and I think it was already 'ready from the first fever of Alexander, and perhaps even before the fever.
"Parties face with Henry. I'm staying here."

Never mind that on the morning of the departure of Alexander the fever had passed ("But you feel that swollen lymph nodes, it has!") And all in all a trip alone with my son 'great I'm glad to do so, for first time. What I do not know, dear friends, 'that while I and Henry played football, watched the squirrels, and eat junk food in the silent grove Swedish Grace Saturday night surprise his debut as a DJ in the glittering nightlife of Milan.

After a visit to the hairdresser more providential 'beloved city', and Alexander gave up the small, perfectly fit, in the hands of the baby sitter, Grace climbed it to the console of "360" in trendissima Via Tortona, playing my records They Might Be Giants, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Spandau Ballet, Black Eyed Peas, Nelly and J-Lo, of course without the covers, then put them right.

Everything 'while in the Swedish woods, repaired in the house by a persistent rain, I read to Henry pages from the book "Letter to my son's football" Darwin Pastorin, and dear father said sadly: "Poor Grace is forced to stay in Milan to attend my grandson sick, instead of being here in this place so 'beautiful'.

flavor with salt, flavor of the sea: the conquest of Grace Versilia

After becoming the queen Curma, and the best customer of the eastern Liguria, Grace lacked the conquest of the coast more 'expensive in Italy.
Complice the invitation of some friends, we are left to spend the long weekend of June 2 mica at a friend's house or a hotel whatsoever, but' at the historical Grand Hotel Principe In Piedmont, recently reopened after two years of massive restructuring, which entails a bold price hikes.
Accommodation: suite room with sea view consists of two single beds and a half each canopy, balcony real children's room, two plasma TVs, a bathroom as big as a studio equipped with a thirty towels, and large walk-in closet ("You know to get there in our wardrobe 'door?", will say' that little of spandimerda my son to a boyfriend on the beach).
The facilities of the hotel:
"Objective Wellbeing: health and beauty center as well as guided tours of saunas, steam baths and" facials ", offers a program of massages with names like" Connective tissue massage "" massage gallura honey "and" massage chocolat ", in addition to proposals such as blatantly dirty" 4 hands massage. "
"pillow menu" at the request of the customer, three different lines of cushions on which to sleep, the "ergonomic" with pillows to latex anatomical, until the "line bioaromatica" which offers a pillow that releases essential oils of lavender and pink, a mint and geranium, and a sandal, to the beautiful " bioenergetics line "that offers creative peak as the" pillow-static fiber copper, which prolongs life and explain how it helps the brain to function better.
And finally, a sumptuous buffet breakfast in the sight of which my children, armed with saucer, say in unison, "I take everything I like, mix strawberries, salami, croissants and pieces of watermelon, corn drowned in the juice of tomato and mozzarella floating in the cappuccino.
But the best is yet to come.
Our friends give us an appointment at the beach "Lido", run by a couple of billionaires, he, Viareggio, she Venezuela, for which the management of the establishment "and 'just a hobby." In reality 'landlords are half and half Florida Venezuela, live six months a year in Miami, and among other properties' real estate have a castle that stands right there,' in front of us, in the middle of the promenade of Viareggio . "But '- she confides in Grace - I know that we sell. What are we to make of two thousand square feet on five floors?". Gia ', I say, but who the fuck you sell a mammatrone like that? "Well - the Venezuelan responds nonchalantly - to anyone willing € 8 million to spend. "Grace looks at me as if to say" And you, beggar, do not you take on? "
The" Lido "and ', by day, a" bath "attended only by members pitches, no poor people rent an umbrella for the day, just get used to 'those who pay 5/10.000 € per season, umbrellas, "tend" and I lay wide apart, with customers complaining of the phones of his neighbors, others who do not want to be "harbor view" but prefer the "gulf view" when the sun would be enough to move to resolve, and one in particular that early in the season shows them 'with the psychic who directs the tent feng shui in order to get the right vibrations.
the evening, you transformed into a refined seafood restaurant on the terrace, with widespread Musichini Guidance soul jazz (Lauryn Hill unplugged, Incognito, Digable Planets, Joss Stone, and of course Kenny G.).
course, three days lunch and dinner always there ', except one dinner in the woods "in what friends describe us as" a dive ", but in reality' is so hardy as expensive. During the day I
Grace regularly loosen the little children to find out all the shops along the promenade. "I have to book the hairdresser," said the Venezuelan, who is organizing the trip to New York where he will go 'to find relatives in their Park Avenue penthouse. "Look - she says - go to Massimiliano. It 's a bit more' expensive than others, but 'the most' good '. And so Grace you sling by Maximilian, while the children throw themselves into the sea, buried in the sand the camera, take the old ladies football.
Children: Alex falls for a rich girl, Tiziana, who do not shit. Henry and 'gasatissimo the idea that the president Moratti and Inter national coach Lippi dress a few meters away.
short, all three won by the Versilia, for next season, I offer three alternatives:
1) pass the 'whole summer in the wonderful Grand Hotel 2) rent a house in Viareggio 3) buying a home in Viareggio.
Why 'as gloss Grace: "A weekend so', regenerates you."
