Love at first sight

I have finally experiened love at first sight. It's okay Dad...I'm not in love with a boy, Cinque Terre has captured my heart. We have been here for less than two hours and already Nicole and I are staying another night (sadly, Heather is leaving us after tomorrow night). This place is beautiful and I want to stay forever. So when I make my fortune, I will be investing in a modest accommodation for me and my dog and whatever animals I have in my life (Dad, insert possible future male here).

Before arriving in Cinque Terre today, we spent about 4 hours in Pisa. We actually climbed the leaning tower of Pisa!!!! We also visited a few other beautiful and interesting sights before running out there (Pisa is neat, but there are a lot of tourists). Our ride to Cinque Terre was fairly smooth except for choosing the train car without air conditioning. Alas we are settled and (speaking for myself although both Nicole and Heather seem delighted) estatic to be here!

Cheers from the most beautiful place in Italy. Emilie
