Before I was born, did they have colour prints in 1950?

Unpaid advertisement.
Everyone's knows that Spain is crowdy of Dutch, German, Brits and even some Norwegians and Swedes.
If you want sun and splendid sea think of Sicily, Sardinia or Salento (the extreme south of Apulia or the heel of Italy).

We were in Sicily for the end of year holidays, PVC of six meters but the rate is valid for motorhomes up to nine meters.
See https://carontetourist.it/en/c…passengers where you can find both the timetables (one every 40 minutes) and the costs.

As for the bridge, it is madness but, at least for now, our populist government wants to build it.
If that is the case, I imagine it will take years (we are not in China).
