Day 1 - Lavagna, Cavi and Sestri Levante
Finally time to relax in the sun away from Lausanne. After an early start and easy drive on the Italian autostrada we arrived on the Ligurian coast for a long weekend on the beach. This was Felix's first outing to the beach and it was not a happy experience. Five hours of driving, hot sand, small pebbles, freezing water and sand and sun screen in the eyes.
Felix did not move from this towel for 30 minutes. Not bad for a boy who normally can't sit still.
More sand in the eyes.
Aasta in the small town of Sestri Levante. Nice pizza and beach.
You don't know how nice it is to wear a t-shirt.
The boats on the sand.
The boats on the water.
The end of day 1.
Day 2 - Cinque Terre and Monterosso al Mare.
We drove for 45 minutes from the hotel to the famous coastal region of Cinque Terre.
Monterosso al Mare from the windy road leading down to the town. Photo taken 5 minutes before we needed to help Felix clean-up an accident with his breakfast.
Day 3 - Santa Margherita Ligure and Genoa
If I win the lotto I'll buy a house in Santa Margherita and rub shoulders with the rich and famous.
Back over the boarder and nearly home.
