Description this is view from Trieste's shore, near castle Miramare. I read Bach's book twice times. I do that 2nd time when I was on the vacations with my cousin Ivana in Rijeka. I upload a lot of shots from Rijeka. In fact those two cities (Trieste and Rijeka) and both have similar origins because they were built for industrial purposes, so port cities on Adriatic shore. (Sad fact is that those cities aren't born for bicycles - steep terrain.)

“Why ,Jon ,why?” His mother asked. “Why is it so hard to be like the rest of the flock, Jon? Why can’t you leave low flying to the pelicans, the albatross? Why don’t you eat? Jon, you are bone and feathers!”

“I don’t mind being bone and feathers, Mum. I just want to know what I can do in the air and what I can’t, that’s all. I just want to know”

“See here, Jonathan,” said his father, not unkindly. “Winter isn’t far away. Boats will be few, and the surface fish will be swimming deep. If you must study, then study food, and how to get it. This flying business is all very well, but you can’t eat a glide, you know. Dont’t you forget that the reason you fly is to eat”

(Jonathan Livingston Seagull by Richard Bach.)
