One of the Five Towns

by craic - last update: Feb 10, 2008

One usually does the Cinque Terre - not just one of the five towns. But there is no location for CT on VT so one has to ponder a little about how to go about writing pages.
Quaint, picturesque - it must have been stunning coming here when the towns could only be reached by goat track or by boat.
Now there is a convenient train whizzing by so if you feel tired you can miss one of the sections - or just go home.
We were staying in Rapallo, which is charming, but I think it would be great to stay actually in one of the towns. Corniglia would be my pick I think. But I didn't get to see Vernazza or Monterosso. The husband piked and we caught the train.

Pros:"Unearthly beauty - both natural and man made."
Cons:"Swarms, hordes of tourists. I was one of them."
In A Nutshell:"One of those places you must go and see - while you are strong enough to walk the whole way."

 My suggestion would be to walk the path the other way, get the hardest done first...but most beautiful too.

 I haven't visited your pages for a while, but it was not pigrizia, I was working like crazy.

 Intro pic is worth a thousand words, and yr words are very useful too! Never been to CT, with my delusion to find the perfect time when I'd be there alone... Tks for thinking of me, I think of you too :)
