which is halfway between Florence and the French border. We took the train into La Spezia, and then from there
took a short train to Cinque Terre.
Cinque Terre is 5 villages that hang from cliffs onto the sea. The whole thing seemed like a dream-- I don't think I've
ever seen anything so cool in my life-- it was like a movie. The villages are separated by about a mile hike, or
you can take a train between them. We hiked between the first three villages.
The hike is kind of crazy because in many places there are no rails and it's a long drop down the cliffs to the sea.
We were thirty minutes between the villages when a storm came over the mountain and being so far from people, we
had to take shelter underneath a cliff hanging over the ocean. It was awesome watching the storm come through and
lightening strike the cliffs and the water.
After the storm, the sun came out and we hung out on one of the beaches. This may have been the best day so far.
