Today was the first day that we got to spend in CinqueTerre. We started the day by meeting our tour guide Marco that would be taking us on a 9 hour hike throught the 5 little towns of CinqueTerre. It was the best hiking conditions.. hot muggy weather. The view definately made up for the hotness througout the day. It was strange how the hiking trail would go from just a rocky path to straight up walking on the edges of cliffs. We had the best view in the world for...

It took us forever to find lunch because the part of the town we were around didn't really seem to have a lot...

It was nice to get to go back to sleep after being up for half the night before struggling with what we would all pack for the week and what we would leave behind.
