Cinque Terre Day 2


Iris here-
We started off our day by having a wonderful breakfast in our hotel, Hotel Villa Argentina, in Cinque Terre, and then my mom and I went for a "hike". It wasn't on dirt, we just went to another one of these towns on the coast called Manarola about 20min. from here, but we walked! it was on a walkway called Via Dell'Amore, which is on the side of the cliffs. It's called that because amore is love in Italian, and couples go there and put their names on padlocks (again!). We decided to go there to try a different swim in the Mediterranean Sea!


When we got there, we put our towels on the concrete boat launch, and went in! It took me a while to get in, but eventually I got there! It was really deep and rocky.There were a whole bunch of teenagers jumping off rocks and things. It was fun to watch. We stopped on the way back for a cold drink, in a cafe right on the cliff.
