Day 1: Today we drove down the coast towards Italy, the road was really busy and after driving for a few hours we came to tiny country called Monaco. Looking down on it we could see lots of multi million dollar super yachts and flash buildings. It was run by one really rich family to bad it’s not the Bragans. Finally we came to Italy, we drove further up the coast. We came to a one-lane tunnel, we stopped at a red light but then all the locals went flying past straight into the tunnel so we decided to follow. The tunnel was about 7 kilometres long and our campsite was in a turn off in the tunnel.
Day 2: Mum was sick this morn so she stayed in the tent while the rest of us walked the Cinque Terre. It is 5 villages which are joined by a walking track, we took the train to the 3rd village called Corneglia it is on top of a cliff, but the train station was at sea level so we had to walk up about a million steps. We had to pay to go on the walking track which was weird, it was a really hot day and the track was very steep it also had a lot of tourists they were mostly Americans and Aussies. The next town was called Vernazza, it was really nice we stopped for a swim and lunch. We carried on up the track and then down a massive set of steps to Monterossa for a swim. Then caught the train back to our campsite to see mum.
Day 3: Today mum was feeling a bit better so she walked with us to the train station then went home. We took the train to the last town called Riomaggorie the track was much easier and only took us 20 minutes to the next town called Manarola. There were masses of people, we had a quick swim then carried on to Corneglia where we headed back to the campground and went swimming with mum.
