Cinque Terra was beautiful. The first day we got there, we did the hardest hike, from Vernazza to Monterosso. It took us about 2 hours total, was hard, but way worth it. Much of these hikes go right through people's vineyards and lemon groves. There was one man during the hike down a ton of steps who was selling fresh lemonade (making it right there in front of us with his own lemons), and lemoncello. We bought some of his lemoncello to take home, and had a nice refreshing break drinking some fresh, cold, lemonade. Yum!! We had a nice dinner that night outside by the sea.
The next day, we took a train to Riomaggiore and hiked from there all the way back to Vernazza. We stopped for a long time in Manarola to eat and then walk around the town and to the cemetery to pay tribute and spend some time thinking about Grandpa. It was a very nice walk and very nice place to do this. Then we hiked all the way back to our town, Vernazza. Wow, what a walk! It was very pretty! We really loved this place!
