Yesterday morning we missed our 8 am water bus to the train station. We paid way to much for a water taxi and missed our train anyway. We were upset because it was a long trip to Pisa but we were relieved when we didnt have to pay anything extra for the next train. We left two hours later than planned and had to hang out at the boring Venice station.

We made our way to Pisa for a 45 minute stop off to see the leaning tower. Its all we needed for our Pisa fix.

We continued our journey onto Cinque Terre. Cinque means 5 in Italian and there are 5 small fishing villages along the coast attached by a hiking trail. Right now we are in town number 2, Vernanzza. We are staying in Monterosso and had a lovely hike this morning. We stopped here for lunch and will continue on as soon as we are done typing. We have seen wild poppies, calla lillies, petunias and lots of grape vinyards all above the ocean on our hike. Its so beautiful here and the perfect climate for everything to grow. Enjoy our pictures. We will write again soon. Tomorrow we head onto the last part of our trip around the Amalfi Coast. We are meeting our friends Chris and Becca for dinner to plan the next day.

Ciao,

Megan and Joe
