Italy - Day 12

Monday 5/31

On this day, Chris really needed to get some more work done. So he drove to Lucca and dropped off Dad, Amelia and me at the train station.


Amelia was going on her first real train ride!



All set with her tickets:


On the train with Mama! We're headed to Cinque Terra:


Checking out the scenery:


Our train, after we arrived at Viareggio:


Getting on our second (of 6) train of the day:


Waving at the folks on the platform:


Snack on the train:



Going through a tunnel!


The view from the train station of Riomaggiore, the first town of the Cinque Terra:




The beautiful waters of the Mediterranean Sea:



Walking through Riomaggiore, towards the water:


There's a few people swimming in the water down there, but there's not really a beach there:


And then we headed back up, to start walking the Via dell'Amore to the next town, Manarola:


Headed down the path:


Looking back at Riomaggiore:


Looking ahead down the path:


The girls, halfway to the next town:


The mid-point to the next town:


Check out the 2nd hole on the left -- Gampa and Amelia!


Mommy's turn to pose!


Manarola -- the 2nd town, heading down towards the water:



That's all we had time for, so we hopped the train all the way back to Altopascio, where Chris retrieved us.

Amelia, still excited by the day's adventures, decided to strip down and play soccer.

This picture was taken after I chased her down and put her diaper back on:
