Wind Surf: Best Parking Place In Portoferraio

Down the gangway and into Portoferraio, Italy, on the island of Elba, Napoleon's exile (no sign of him during our visit - next stop, Saint Helena?). That's the great thing about small ship cruising, easy access to small, untouristed destinations. For those making landfall here in the non-Napoleonic era, internet access is available directly across the street from the pier (€1.50 for 15 minutes) and practically next door, arguably the world's creamiest gelato, made from "fresh milk from bio-farms" (€2 for a small and delicious cone).
