This morning I left Genoa and took a 2 hr. train ride to Manarola, one of the five cities of Cinque Terre. My last day in Genoa was mainly walking around the city, but that night Brittany and I went out with some of Marcos' friends to an awesome bar in Nervi along the sea. First we went to dinner at a cafe where if you buy a drink (about 6 euros) you get the buffet for free! Then at the bar we had mojitos (it is my drink of choice now apparently) and hung out overlooking the water and Porto Fino in the distance.
Cinque Terre is a picturesque town; when I post picutures you guys will be jealous. There is a rocky coastline very similar to Dartmouth and cool, clear water to swim in. I may have to buy a bathing suit while I'm here! I met up with Angela and Adam for lunch (we all had pesto dishes, yum!), and then was supposed to meet Mark and Steve at 5. They apprently missed their morning train and now I'm not sure where they are. I hope I will meet up with them tonight. Tonight more walking around I think; it's very hot here too. I actually took a nap on a bench along the coastal path.
I just checked into my hostel and it is nice and clean; although they lock you out between 10 and 5 which is a bummer. No siestas for me. Alright, I only bought 15 minutes of internet so I gotta run!
