Genoa

Genoa is another marvellous city full of amazing architecture and, with its many narrow lanes, is a fun place to visit. It is said that the narrow ways were to confuse pirates however I think the natural fall of the land has something to do with it!


Christopher Columbus is one of the famous sons of Genoa.



Piazza Ferrari, classic architecture and a great fountain.


Lunch - sitting on the steps of San Lorenzo cathedral eating genuine foccacia and watching the children chasing the huge bubbles being made by the bubble lady, listening to gentle guitar music from a busker and people (and dog) watching.


Off to Sicily!

P.s. uploading photos is slow and time is short so the reports are brief at this stage. Loving the hot weather, already put on the weight I lost in preparation for this trip and enjoying it:)
How many gelati a day do you think is too many?
