Day trip to Cinque Terre yesterday. It was a beautiful day, the water
was cold but it felt wonderful after getting a little red waiting on the
train. There was a little shop that was selling pesto pizza (pesto,
apparently, originated in the area) and it was then that I realized how
delicious and creative Italian food is. Relaxing on the beach trumped
running around Venice; I think we were all in need of a day off from
classes and tour guides.
