Wanderings Europe: Italy

From Switzerland we took a train to Italy where we spent 5 nights in Vernazza, one of the five towns of Cinque Terre. We wandered from town to town and enjoyed the slow pace of of small town life. Arguably the best food and wine of our trip was here in Cinque Terre, and we thouroughly enjoyed waking up every morning to the sea crashing into the harbor. From Cinque Terre, we took a little over a week bouncing down to Pisa, Florence, and ultimately Rome. Seeing these ancient cities was a great way to round out our trip, and after a long plane ride we found ourselves back in the hellish summer temps of Arizona.

Thanks for coming along on our European adventure. You can see more pictures on the Arizona Wanderings Facebook Page. Back to the regular summer fishing posts shortly.

    Thank you for sharing that awesome vacation with us! Going to Europe is one of the things my wife and I are dreaming about doing in the not too distant future, so this really gives a good feel for what it is like over there. Those little bitty towns built into the cliff sides are incredible! they look smaller, in area, then the neighborhood I live in!
