In celebration of our 15th wedding anniversary we left the kids behind for a 5-day trip to the Italian Cinque Terre on the Ligurian coast. The plan was to eat, hike, relax, and enjoy a true vacation.
Monterosso was our home base
From there footpaths connected the five villages of the Cinque Terre
Corniglia is perched on a clifftop
We took the stairs for a man and a woman that led to the place where you point at the water
Yikes it was a lot of steps!
We passed terraced vineyards for local wine
that we consumed by the liter at enotecas and restaurants
with antipasti
and all manner of
delicious
pasta
that were not shared with the house pets
On our way home we stayed overnight in Florence to see some of the Renaissance art
and relics,
overmuscled statues
serpentine!
and swaddled putti
the trail from Corniglia to Vernazza
