Day 7
Today Debbie and I took the local train back to La Spezia to get the microchip card for my iPad renewed so I can continue to blog. There is very limited cellular service and Wi-Fi in this remote location. Having succeeded we returned to the train terminal and headed north to the furthest north in the Cinque Terra - Monterrosa. This was a significant departure from the sleepy fishing town of Manarola where we are staying. I didn't have my camera so we couldn't capture the resort atmosphere of this town. We had another beautiful lunch in a little restaurant there and watched them use hand labor to push hand carts filled with fresh-caught anchovies. These are locally caught along with every shell fish you can think of. We met up the the Harsy crew and had a beautiful dinner that included fresh mussels, lobster, gnocchi in pesto sauce, etc. Few pictures today so I will include a night photo I took of our town at night.
