Today was our last day in Cinque Terre. I’m going to miss it a lot! We paid the older man for our room, ate at the same wonderful café for breakfast, and then headed to Vernazza. The ocean is such a beautiful backdrop to the bright colors of all the umbrellas in Vernazza. Later in the day, we took a train from Monterosso to Milan. Milan’s train station is amazing! It’s by far my favorite train station I’ve ever been to. We were just going to be in Milan for one night, so we stayed in a really nice hotel near the train station. The AC, Wifi, clean bathroom, comfortable beds with plenty of pillows, etc. were such a luxury compared to the rest of our Italian accommodations. We were living the life – give us some AC and we turn into queens. J
