Location: Portovenere, Italy
When the one person that’s supposed to wake everyone up is snoring logs, you know it’s going to be a good day. The expedition to the five villages, altogether called Cinque Terre, was an experience. It started out with waking up to the Canadian national anthem, then a huge rush to get people to the bus station. There seems to be a common trend whenever these types of days happen, SNACKS!!! Groups of us lining up outside of closed markets to stock up on Italian Oreos and so much more. We soon ended up making a recovery, and everyone had a great time on shore. From the pounds of pizza that were eaten between the villages to many cats walking everywhere, not forgetting the blisters and war scars that were collected, it was an absolutely beautiful, amazing, and adventurous day.
