Cinque Terre National Park

On Tuesday I hiked from Riomaggiore to Vernazza in the Cinque Terre National Park.  That is about a four-hour walk through trails that were anything from brick sidewalk to stairs winding through a town to an Indiana Jones bridge.  The towns on the way to Vernazza are Manarola and Corniglia.  



Plenty of rest stops along the way.
Manarola
The only way to launch a boat here was with a crane.



Vernazza
After the long hike i came back to go swimming and relax on this beach.  The water is crystal clear and very comfortable after a long hot day.
