Genoa


The port of Genoa.



Il Bigo Represents ship masts. You can ride to the top which you can see at the top right side.





The Genoa Aquarium was worth a visit. Well done in the Main. Alison I wonder if these creatures are what you are looking for up your way. These actually come from the West Indies might be related!






Cinque Terre


Monterosso where we started our first days walk from.



On the walk. I think Lyric should be out there!

A market early morning in La Spezia. We bought apricots, cherries and apples.



The beautiful village of Vernazza. ( Enlarge it!)













Florence


Duomo in Florence Just a tiny section. It is massive.
It was a public holiday. St John the Baptist day


The famous Ponte Vecchio Bridge. The only bridge not touched during WW2 bombing.





The river Arno outside our hotel. Great fireworks that night for the holiday.
