Summer 2006: Italy - Hiking the Cinque Terre


Our very first hikiing trip, ever, with Country Walkers.  What a trip it was! Beautiful Italy!   I hiked here with my husband Jim and our friends, Cheryl and Dave Armbrust.  Cinque Terre means "the five lands," really, five villages that are barely accessible by road and which hover over the Ligurian Sea on the upper west coast of Italy.   Marvelous sights and delicious food and wine! We hiked over mountains, down ancient steps, ate wonderful Ligurian seafood and delicious basil pesto on tasty pasta.  What could be better?
