Maybe Tuesday night is not a natural choice for a boys night, but as we were at the beginning of project week, with no formal lessons, a lie in was possible on Wednesday morning.
So the boys were meeting at Bar Walter. Vlasta and I went to pick up the Floridians - our pet collective name for the Rollins College students - at their hotel and took them to the bar owned by a San Daniele ham company for yet more wine and prosciutto. The San Daniele bar, Dell'Ava is just around the corner from Bar Walter, so Massimo came over for a drink with us first.
Then by that stage we were together, so we were invited and went to join the boys for a drink at Bar Walter, the 6 girls somewhat destroying the boys only balance. A couple of drinks later (spritz aperol and proseccos all round) we decided that we really would leave the boys to start their night out, so Vlasta and I retired to the little restaurant on my street with the Floridians.
The boys went to Marinos, near Piazza Borsa.
About 1 hour into dinner the phone rang - the guys were wondering what we were up to. So after dinner we went back to join them for the rest of the night. It was the liveliest Tuesday I have had in Trieste so far - dancing in a small bar in via Nicolo Machiavelli, near to my house. I am sure that for our guests it was an eye opener - from what I hear, Tuesdays in Winter Park Florida are not so lively!
But maybe boys nights out are more like boys nights out than this one was! (Thanks to the boys though for letting us join them, it was a great night!)
