The celebration of <strong><em>\u0093Feriae\u00a0Augusti\u0094<\/em> was introduced by the 1<sup>st<\/sup> Emperor of the Roman Empire, Augustus<\/strong> to link with the other holidays celebrated in the month of August, forming a \u0091<em>ponte\u0092<\/em> (bridge) and giving all the <strong>hardworking people<\/strong> of Italy (like us!) a long weekend to relax and\/or party. This way, we can all come <strong>back to the office on Tuesday 16<\/strong> refreshed after our weekends of socializing, bathing in the beautiful waters surrounding Italy, and eating, as food plays a BIG part of any celebration!<\/p>\n<p>Everybody here at <strong>Intrawelt is making plans<\/strong> for the best way to spend the break<em>. <\/em>From trips to other regions of Italy such as <strong>Puglia<\/strong>, to it\u0092s beautiful beaches for a traditional <em>Ferragosto<\/em> \u0091<em>bagno di mezzanotte\u0092<\/em> (midnight swim); afternoons spent admiring the wonders of the <strong>Adriatic<\/strong> further along the coast (we love the shallow waters of <strong>Abruzzo<\/strong>, the beautiful natural beaches of the <strong>Riviera del Conero<\/strong>, and just about every other beach in between!); social gatherings with local friends or a total escape with a trip to <strong>Essaouira<\/strong>, Morocco!<\/p>\n<p>This is the main weekend of the year where everybody <strong>abandons the cities and heads to the seaside<\/strong>! Each coastal town organizes its own special events and <strong>Porto Sant\u0092Elpidio<\/strong> is no exception! Those of us sticking around will be attending the <strong><em>\u0091Notte dei Desideri\u0092<\/em><\/strong> (Night of Wishes) which includes the popular tradition of releasing sky lanterns into the night and making a wish; this year\u0092s edition of <strong>\u0091<em>Una Ragazza per il Cinema<\/em>\u0092<\/strong> (A girl for the Cinema), established in 1989 as an occasion for hopeful actresses to show off their talents in a competition to be Italy\u0092s next star on the silver screen; the <strong>Super Summer Games <\/strong>giving us all the chance to enjoy some live music; and last but not least &#8211; as food is perhaps one of the most important parts of any Italian celebration &#8211; Porto Sant\u0092Elpidio is providing an evening of <strong>international cuisine<\/strong> <strong>\u0091<em>Sapori dal Mondo\u0092<\/em><\/strong>!<\/p>\n<p>So, from all of us at Intrawelt, we wish you a <strong>happy <em>Ferragosto<\/em><\/strong>!
