Nah - not at all - Nervi is lovely. I was told it was one of the oldest touristic areas in Italy. Not for seeing old stuff and history and that - but for relaxing and resort type stuff. Building a beautiful villa and taking advantage of the excellent micro-climate. Some people have even suggested that it is a rich person's place. And there certainly are what must be very grand and expensive enclaves. But plenty of plainer, gritty stuff too.
This is apparently a Roman bridge. They built bridges to last back then. |
|  | See what I mean? Not grand or posh at all. Just tons of charm.
Update - I have just found out that this is the next village up - Quinto al Mare - sometimes called Nervi-Quinto. The villages around here blend into each other. |
|  | Not that this isn't charming too. Just I couldn't afford it. |

deecat Sat May 30, 2009 22:50 UTC What a gift for words you have! I'm still smiling about the "bandit squirrels", the free toilet at the train station, and the little ladies hiding in phone booth as shelter from the downpour. Just marvelous. | sourbugger Sat May 31, 2008 16:21 UTC surprised i´ve never read this page before. what does the obsession with toilets say about you, eh ? | hunterV Sun Mar 2, 2008 16:12 UTC Jennifer, I like your poetic descriptions of your trips - very special and interesting like a novel...
