Day 28

We woke up this morning to dark storm clouds. (Although the temperature was still about 70 degrees.)



We packed up our swimming and snorkel gear anyway and took the train back to Monterroso. By the time we got there the sun was out!



We got a spot on a private beach with our own umbrellas and soaked up the sun.



Dad and I used our snorkel masks to search for my sun glasses that I stupidly lost in the sea. I'm sure we looked funny swimming in circles. After a very relaxing afternoon in the sun we walked around the little town of Monterosso.






And got our daily gelato.



Dad decided to take the train back to La Spezia and Juls, Linds, and I walked along the scenic trail between Manarola and Riomaggiore.



We found the elevator that takes you to the top of the Riomaggiore. We found a beautiful shaded viewpoint and later watched some kids playing soccer in the church courtyard.



On our way back to La Spezia we found a market and stocked up on groceries.



We wanted to shop that evening in La Spezia but we were too late again, the stores were closed.
