Fish Food

I found out while swimming in Cinque Terre that apparently my feet are candy to the fish!

On our final day in Cinque Terre, we treated ourselves to a full day at the beach in Monterosso. We rented a beach umbrella, two chairs, laid out in the sun, got a massage and drank compari. It was a wonderful day! (we felt so spoiled!)

Hiking in Cinque Terre

There's a beautiful hike between the towns of Cinque Terre. We hiked between Vernazza and Monterosso the first day (which is the longest and hardest hike)- man is it a workout! The following day, we hiked the rest of the trail going from Vernazza to Corneglia, to Manarola and ending up in Riomaggiore.

El Gigante

At the end of the beach in Monterosso (in Cinque Terre), there is this enormous ruin of a sculpture left over from an Art Deco outside dance floor that once overlooked the ocean. You can read more about it over on Daisy's blog...
