I left my heart in Cinque Terra

The Italian Riviera... unbelieveable

Take a hike!
... five cities of Cinque Terre. We had been advised to start the hike on the far end, in Monterosso, and finish in Riomaggiore, because it is apparently much harder toward Monterosso, and nicer to get that part over with first. However, consistent with our ...
The 5Terre - good excuse for a hike!

Cinque Terre

What a life...in Cinque Terre

Hiked the Cinque Terre trails in just over 3 hours! (It's supposed to take about 5...) - With a blood blister and a bunion! It is absolutely beautiful!! Wish I'd had more time there, but there was a train strike, so I wasn't able to stick around in case ...

Pretty coast again
... Florence, 2 full hours in Pisa (honestly, I was expecting worse from what I'd heard from Andrew), and now we're in Riomaggiore, the first of 5 villages known as La Cinque Terre. It's pretty similar to the Amalfi coast.... gorgeous! Anyway, I'm sorry ...
A vacation in Cinque Terre
The Cinque Terre are 5 tiny fishing villages squeezed into a small area where the mountains meet the sea. It's amazingly beautiful, with hiking-walking trails between all the villages. While I was there I explored all the villages, walking random ...

Holy Crap Cinque Terre
So It was a short travel day to Cinque Terre, through Pisa (missed the leaning tower! what a bummer), when we got off the train we were blown away. We had seen pics on the net, but it was just incredible. Houses built on top of houses on hillsides inter ...
Wow
We arrived in Riomaggiore around 6 AM. The sun was coming up and the streets were completely quiet - not a single tourist in site. Just locals opening their grocery stores and bakers running around the streets with dough that needed baking. This is an ...

Our Second Favorite Place
