Cinque Terre

Ciao bella! I am seriously still so jet lagged, but I need to not nap and push through it! I'm trying to get on some sort of normal sleep schedule before this trip is over :) So far, due espressi e uno caffe americano today. And I'm still struggling! On Sunday, we went to Cinque Terre with a tour group. Oh my gosh. I already want to go back. Actually, I want to go every weekend for the rest of my life. Or every day. Um, yea. It was gorgeous! The weather was perfect, first of all. We hiked up 382 stairs to the top of a mountain, where we ate lunch. I had fried vegetables that were amazing and reminded me of french fries - yum! Cinque Terre is apparently known for their pesto, fish and white wine. I tried some of the other girls' pesto dishes and it was indeed delicious! I am going to exclamation the hell out of this post because I am that enthusiastic about this place haha. After lunch and getting somewhat lost, we took the train to la spiaggia (the beach!). It was so beautiful! There wasn't sand, but instead small pebbles. The water was this perfect turquoise color, and crystal clear. Also, I had the best daiquiri of my life. They made it with fresh strawberries rather than sugary syrup! It was delicious and I'm going to try to replicate it back in the states.




Ciao for now! Mwah!
