- During the long, hot Italian summer the schools close for almost three months of vacanze estive (summer vacation). Italian students are on vacation from mid June to mid September. In August many factories and offices also close, leaving the major cities practically deserted. Early August sees the esodo (exodus) from the major cities while at the end of August comes the controesodo (return). This leads to long lines of traffic on the superhighways and especially at the tollgates.

- Focaccia is a flat bread rather like a pizza but thicker. It is made with dough similar to that used for making bread, but with the addition of salt and extra virgin olive oil. Both focaccia and the smaller focaccine are good eaten warm on their own; they can also be cut in half and filled with cold cuts or cheese. They are eaten as a mid-morning or afternoon snack, or for a quick lunch or supper. The Ligurian version is made with cheese.
