Day 66 - Cinque Terre

There's only one thing about Cinque Terre that makes me question whether it's really heaven - it's too crowded. Well, there are also wasps and barnacles. Other than that - it's perfect. I bet even the most high-strung people would become relaxed and laid-back after a day there. Sun, water, ferries, gelato, hot Italian military guys, delicious seafood and cheap wine - what else could one possibly need? The notion of stress does not exist there.

All five villages are so close to each other that we spent time in all of them in one day. Sometimes we walked, and a few times we took trains or boats...

I wonder if we had gelato in all five towns...

Wow! Cinque Terre is one of the places I've always wanted to go. I remember when I went to Barcelona for a week, I tried figuring out a way to swing over there for two days but I was having too much fun in Barcelona.

I like this one. It would look good on a beach towel.

Look it's one of those Bungee boats that has the stick they try and poke you with !!

We do the same thing in India. You save electricity and the clothes smell nice

Unless you live in Stinktown!

Ignore previous comment about you never identifying people!

Although we do want more Olga shots. I don't think she was in Italy. :)

So do Scorpios and Virgos get along? I don't know my signs. They seem to be happy here. I want a goat towel.

srah said on Saturday, July 23, 2005 at 12:38 AM about Colors

Virgos are most compatible with Tauruses and Capricorns.

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww... *throws up*

apete said on Monday, July 25, 2005 at 8:15 AM about Colors

So is it Tarui or Tauruses?

O said on Monday, July 25, 2005 at 9:10 AM about Colors

LOL! Good question. I am one of them. Why is it bad, Srah? Who is Virgo? Am I compatible with you?

I am borderline though (as you may have already noticed) - with whatever goes right before Taurus.

O said on Monday, July 25, 2005 at 9:11 AM about Colors

Actually, I don't even think it's Virgo on the towel - looks like Libra to me... See the scales?

srah said on Monday, July 25, 2005 at 10:15 AM about Colors

I'm a Virgo. What's before Taurus? Is that Aries? Aries is always the last one I remember.

I think Olga's right - it does look like Libra instead.

apete said on Monday, July 25, 2005 at 11:18 AM about Colors

I believe you are right Olga. I really don't know my signs. :) I'm often told how I am supposed to be because I am Capricorn...I just don't know. I did see the two towels as signs though. That is something....right?

Yes, it is Scorpio and Libra. Combine the 2 (my sign) and you have "the devil incarnate," according to some.
