Today is a travel day, so we leave Riccione, and the comforts of Hotel Dory with all meals provided, go an hour and a half to Bologna, change trains, and head north to Venice.
Here are a few more photos from our week at the bike hotel:

| White grapes on the vine |
At the farm on Monday, the owner showed us the hut where the balsamic vinegar ages in barrels. They use these white grapes - it takes about three days to boil up all the grapes, then they go into barrels - every year they're moved to a barrel made of a different wood. He let us each taste a few drops of 26 year old Balsamic vinegar, which was sweet! It's used on strawberries, cheese, fish and meat - never on bread or salad - it's too good for that!
