Cinque Terra

imageLevanto, our gateway to the Cinque Terra, is a very small and quiet town and it is here that we decided to park ourselves for three nights while we hiked around Cinque Terra.  I know some of you know about, and have hiked, the Cinque Terra but for those of you who don’t it’s definitely worth a google.  Rick Steeves describes it as “…..a remote chunk of the Italian Riviera…….traffic-free, lowbrow, underappreciated alternative to the French Riviera.”   Basically it’s five villages(five lands) – Monterosso al Mare, Vernazza, Corniglia,  Manarola and Riomaggiore.    Our plan is to hike from village to village,  if they are all open, and that begins tomorrow so stay tuned.   Tonight we have decided to go to the market to get what we need as we are eating in since we have another super Air BnB with a kitchen and all that comes with it……….it’s an early start in the morning but not at the crack of dawn!
