Florence to Cinque Terre (Firenze a La Spezia)

I travel from Florence (Firenza) to the Cinque Terre, passing the famous marble quarry at Carrara. I establish base camp in La Spezia, then spend three full days hiking the between Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza, and Monterosso. Especially enchanted by it’s harbor, I paint watercolors on three successive days in Vernazza.
