Warning. There’s lots of blue skies, blue water and gelato ahead.
We’ve said goodbye to the incredible Cinque Terre area, after spending a day exploring and enjoying the cool blue water. We even managed to find some sand – or what Europeans refer to as sand.
We caught a ferry from Riomaggoire to Monterosso, enjoying the coastline.
At Monterosso, we cooled off with a dip. It’s not cheap though. €25 for two beds and an umbrella. But again, worth it just to keep your arse off the gravelly beach.
It wasn’t quite sand. More like ground up gravel. But better than the beach where it feels like the RTA has dumped road base.
We dropped in to Verassa on the way home for obligatory gelato.
After climbing up the stairs to our room, we decided to head out for dinner having some fresh local seafood.
Our time at Cinque Terre has come to an end.
Next stop is Venice. Standby for lots of shots of bridges, gondolas and canals. And gelato.
