Cinque Terre Day Tip

Last Friday, my friend Lauren and I decided to take a day trip to the five beautiful coastal towns called Cinque Terre - pronounced as Chink-qua-tear-eh (direct translation is literally "five lands"). Oh my gosh is was such a gorgeous day to go. The train from Florence was about 2.5 hours and you could take the regional train to any of the towns you wanted to. The towns are Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola, and Riomaggiore, with Riomaggiore being the closest one. We spent a majority of our day in Vernazza and took our time hiking and exploring the city. Definitely a dream destination for any hikers and ocean lovers out there. Overall it was a day well spent and I wish I had spend more time in Cinque Terre.

Not a bad hiking view
Finding time to stop and smell the flowers
Vernazza
Ready to take on the world

This panoramic does not even do this place justice.
Balancing act.
