We took a one and a half hour train from Udine to Trieste...and it was closed. With just a few cafes open the main activity seemed to be watching some workmen dig a hole!!

Bought a sandwich and an English newspaper from Trieste station, took the 1 and a half hour train back to Udine and had a late lunch in McDonalds (the only thing open there as well).

Moral of the story...check local Bank Holiday Mondays!!

From one of the piers in the centre of Trieste's waterfront, little ferries chug across the gulf to the fishing village of Muggia. Fantastically well preserved old village centre, generally sleepy atmosphere (well, I was there on a Sunday) and no shortage of small and authentic eating places.
