Where in the world are we – part 2

After enjoying our visits to two large cities we headed off to an area on the Italian coast known for their five villages.

Picturesque and full of character, we really took to the area. On our first day, the Missus took me along for a hike. The main trail from one village to another had been washed out so we did an inland route which took 5 hours! Going up was not bad; but my knees are still recovering from the climb down!

You couldn't complain about the views though!

We spent the next two days exploring the other villages; each with its own personality and character.

For a highly touristed area, we found folks to be gracious and friendly, with a fun sense of humor.

As for the food; well, it was seafood of course.

Basically, there was one reason for my wanting to visit here.

I also booked a food tour to learn a bit more about the local cuisine and specialties.
