The Cinque Terra


Everyone told us we had to go to the cinque terra: 5 hill towns connected at the ocean in Northwestern Italy. We spent 2 nights there and really enjoyed ourselves. It was beautiful, peaceful and allowed us to spend a lot of time with nature and just relaxing. We took a 7 mile hike, which took us about 4 hours, through the 5 towns and up and down the surrounding mountains. It was very challenging but really worth it, and because it was along the Mediterranian it was absolutely stunning. We had a couple nice meals of seafood and got to try the best foccacia since it is from that region. There isnt too much to write but we will upload the many wonderful photos as soon as we are able. Please keep leaving comments so we know people are reading what we are writing!

We love hearing from you, Jenny! Your trip sounds so smooth and well paced. I was at a WNS fund raising auction and dinner party tonight, and there were 275 attendees! Every teacher you had asked how you were doing, including Mrs. Sills, Mrs. Koyama and Mrs. McAdam. I said you were just a lazy bum, trotting around Europe! HA! HA! HA! Actually, they all thought it was terrific that you and Ethan were doing this. Stay safe, keep warm and have fun!

Love,
Mom

Keep the Blog coming, so you can save it and use it for when you are writing for "Bon Appetit," "Gourmet," or "Martha Stewart Living!" Stay warm and dry.
