The Adriatic Sea

On Monday we drove to the east coast, a long trip through the mountains. It was made longer by a diversion over a narrow mountain road because the main road was blocked by slips after Norscia. We traversed the lower slopes of snow-capped Mount Vettore (2,700 metres or 8,100 feet) before dropping back down to rejoin the main road in the valley.
At Grottammare on the Adriatic coast it was sunny and warm, but we found many places closed (too early in the season). We lunched beside the sands, then visited the old town on the hill above.
We returned home via a long loop through Civitanova Marche and then Foligno.
