95\\ Cinque Terre love affairs

Florence - Pisa - Cinque Terre - Florence - Rome


As I have stated in my previous post, we continued our journey to Cinque Terre after dropping by at Pisa for an hour or so. We bought the one-day Cinque Terre card which is valid for unlimited train ride at any time until midnight of the day. We did this because we thought we were going to visit all the 5 Terre. Unfortunately the weather was awfully hot and the heat seemed to be draining our energy, we only managed to visit 2 of them. 
the xxxl pizza. I doubt it will be enough for 8. 
It is good enough to feed 4 thou!

 Colorful cliff side of Manarola
This place is so stunning it doesn't even look real!
I know, you should be able to find tons of photos looking like this when you google 'Manarola'
I am sorry to be the one to spill to it you, but Manarola actually looks like
THIS! with zero editing. #realityslap
Now, do not get me wrong, this place is breathtaking, it's just that it's not as vibrant as seen on internet, that's all. 


Crystal clear water. I would jump into the sea anytime. Even if I can't swim. 
- Nessun Dorma -
Stopped by this little place to have some nibbles and drinks. It is high on the hill overlooking the town and the bay. Took us a little walk uphill from the center of the village, but it's all worth it. The views here are unbeatable. 
I forgot what did we ordered. some alcoholic beverages, some focaccia.

We thought there weren't much to explore since they are only 5 small towns and we could visit all of them in a day. But no, each town has its unique characteristics and sights. If I had the chance to plan our trip again, I would make sure we stay for a night or two. Just to enjoy the summer heat.

Xx, Shan
