30 mn Italians on holiday,

8% up says Coldiretti

59% spent less than 500 euros

(ANSA) - Rome, August 28 - Thirty million Ita-

lians went on holiday in the summer of 2015,

half of which during the month of August, said

the Federation of Italian Farmers (Coldiretti) on

Friday, according to which the data points to an

8% increase with respect to the previous year.

Eighty-two per cent of holiday-makers chose

to remain in Italy shying away from destinations

affected by international crises and terrorism.

The average holiday budget per person was

around 504 euros per person and according to

the report compiled by Coldiretti and Ixé pol-

lsters, 59% spent less than 500 euros per head,

33% between 500 and one thousand euros, 3%

between one and two thousand, with just 1%

admitting to spending over 2 thousand euros.

Food shopping was the item that weighed

most heavily on the budget of holiday-makers,

surpassing funds allocated to accomodation.

Less than one Italian out of three chose to stay

in a hotel or a pension, with 36% of Italians

opting for their own properties or the homes of

relatives or friends.

Italians take digital

detox at the beach Grandparents teach children old-fashioned games, study says

(by Daniela Giammusso) (ANSA) - Rome, August 12 - Getting the kids off their devi-

ces could be easier than expected.

After a winter spent repeating "put that thing down," or "no Game Boy at the ta-

ble," and "have you finished your homework before turning on the computer?" all it

took was to bring them to the beach, and

a miracle happened. Even the most te-

chnology-dependent kids, the ones to

whom you'd say "you'll make a job out of

that when you grow up" or "let's hope

that you at least have Bill Gates' talent,"

went back to being just kids, in less than

Italy school hols longest in Europe

Italian schoolkids get 13 weeks compared to 6 for British,

Dutch

(ANSA) -Rome, September 7 - Italian school students have

among the longest holidays in Europe together with other

'Club Med' countries such as Greece, Portugal and Malta,

according to the latest Eurydice report on the site Skuo-

la.net.

While Italian schools still have to start again after months

of leisurely summer vacation, schools in Germany re-opened

in August after the school year finished only in August, while

in the far north of Europe in five countries, Denmark,

Norway, Sweden, Finland and Iceland, school holidays do not

start until mid to late August.

While climate differences may explain some variations between countries, Italian

school holidays also are among the earliest to start, meaning that Italy, together with

Lithuania, Latvia, Portugal and Turkey has the longest summer school holidays in

Europe, reaching as much as 13 weeks compared to some six weeks in the United

Kingdom, Netherlands and Switzerland, according to the Eurydice report.

Genoa Boat Show

soon to take centre

stage

Ucina-ICE cooperation to further

boating's international scope

(ANSA) - Genoa, August 27 - Sailing

is about to take centre stage at the

upcoming 55th International Boat

Show in Genoa scheduled from

September 30 to October 5.

Organizers said that more than 70

foreign operators and buyers are

expected to attend this year's fair.

"We are aware of the r

esponsibilities tied to an event such

as the Genoa Boat Show: boating is a

huge asset for the Italian economy"

said Carla Demaria, president of

Ucina, the Italian boating industry

confederation.

He thanked the Italian Trade

Agency ICE for its pivotal contribution

in furthering the sector's international

dimension.

With sand and sea salt as the accomplices,

tablets, smartphones and consoles stay at home

and old-fashioned games come back into vogue.

The games are the ones that we all played and

that, incredible, have managed to resist trends

and generations of change. Classics include:

tracks etched in the sand with a chair, made for

marbles with faces of champions drawn on them;

sand volcanoes (that won't manage to emit

smoke this year either); bocce balls; and foosball

at the coffee bar where the 'pinwheels' for

making goals don't count, but still everyone does

it.

Cards spread on the beach towel, Pokemon in

place of football player trading cards, but still

traded sitting on beach chairs, or capture the flag

at sunset, with dad holding the bandana in the

middle. And so, summer turns into a healthy

digital detox for kids, who come out of their iso-

lated virtual reality bubble.

It's the same way for adults.

Between a newspaper and a novel, the

"games from way back when" fever, under the

beach umbrella, infects everyone just a little bit.

A study for the Gingerino Mix Tour campaign

suggested that eight out of 10 Italians between

the ages of 18 to 60 prefer spending their free

time with old-fashioned games - above all for

their social value. The top games included

foosball, darts, and playing cards.

Our children, in a perfect mix between

technology and curiosity for the past, are no

exception.

That is mostly due to the company of

grandparents, which becomes daily or even full-

time during vacation, making them true partners

in fun and discovery, even if it's just for card

games like briscola and scopa.

"Play helps to bring generations together and

make them interact," said Francesca Antonacci,

researcher in the Department of Human Sciences

of the University of Milano-Bicocca.

"It brings people together who are far apart

because it belongs more to a state of mind rather

than a chronological age.

And, above all, because it can connect the

"free" generations, those who aren't pressed by

work obligations, such as children and

grandparents, " Antonacci said.

According to 90% of those interviewed in the

study, it's grandparents who pass down the

old-fashioned games to their grandchildren,

followed by parents and aunts and uncles.

But don't worry if this year you've chosen the

mountains or a week of camping for your

holidays. Board games such as Monopoly and

Subbuteo are also well-loved, followed by

hide-and-seek, hopscotch and marbles, all of

which are just as good for the beach as they are

for the squares of a small mountain town.

And if, under the calm of the umbrella, you

think back to last winter, maybe it's not surpri-

sing that the Gingerino study shows that time for

play with family and friends is decreasing.

One Italian out of two can't find even 15

minutes a day, and 35% find just two hours a

week for play, the study said.

But when the survey participants were asked

to go back to their childhood memories, 75%

said their first thoughts were of childhood games,

those they played with their friends outside and

the pranks they played on siblings and cousins.

And so, perhaps, for one day we'll put down

that tablet that we take with us hidden in our

beach bag between the towels and sunscreen.

Maybe for once it's worth it even as adults to

play with the children and the grandparents.

Fees for Venice tourism proposed

Harry's Bar owner slams tourist attitudes to lagoon city

(ANSA) - Venice, August 13 - Tourists should have to pay to

visit Venice to help to stem damage caused by overcrowding

and littering, the owner of the city's famous Harry's Bar said on

Thursday.

Arrigo Cipriani told La Nuova di Venezia newspaper that a

tourist payment system on Freedom Bridge, which connects

Venice to the mainland, was the only solution he saw to counter

growing problems in the lagoon city.

"Venetians get to pass for free, everyone else has to pay

something," he proposed, slamming the way tourists behave

while visiting the city.

"Everyone feels they have a right to make a mess: tourists

see that the city is disgusting and so they don't feel bad about

adding their bit," he said.

He also said he was shocked by recent tourist behaviour af-

ter one man was captured on cell phone cameras jumping nude

into the Grand Canal.
