Cinque Terre
We took a quick 2-day road trip to the famously beautiful Cinque Terre on Italy's central western coast. Along with us we had Justin's parents and my friend Becca, we loaded into our compact car (along with a fair amount of luggage) and braved the 2.5 hour, windy drive to get to the village of Manarola. We enjoyed about 3 hours of beautiful weather before the sky opened up and the rain poured down. I'm very thankful that we got those glorious 3 hours to hike around the (many, many) steps of the village and take in the spectacular sights.
