Another stop en route to Rome was Porto Santo Stefano. This is another place that looked interesting and beautiful so we decided to visit. The roads leading there from the mainland were very busy and windy but totally worth it in the end. We arrived in the afternoon just in time for a nice sunset dinner.

After dinner we took a walk around this coastal town. We had to stop for ice cream of course :) The place was packed with people. We figured out that this must be a favorite hangout of the rich as there were a number of very big and expensive boats moored by the dock. Since it was dinner time some of the occupants ate on decks (of their boats). It was interesting to steal a look inside these vessels and at the occupants as well! We noticed that some of them had ordered food from local restaurants and saw waiters running back and forth to serve them.
We headed out of town pretty late and had to find a hotel for the night. We found a nice and very reasonably priced one in the town of Manciano. Tomorrow gets us even closer to Rome :)
