Via Dell'AMORE

 We took a leisurely stroll on the Via Dell Amore in the Cinque Terra. It begins in Riomaggiore and ends in Monarola.  This portion of the hike is easy, flat with very pretty vistas of the ocean.  It is primarily on the coast and is paved.  Italy takes very good care of their trails.  A lot of effort when in to conserving the Cinque Terra Trail.  It brought a lot of tourism into the area.  My niece also took some pictures of this little hike.  Candice is an artist/poet/photographer and her blog look like a magazine spread.  Click here if you want to see it. It was such a wonderful celebration of love and devotion.

Some day I will go back with my love and bring a lock. <3




A view of the tunnel where lovers write love letters to each other on the walls.



A view from the pathway.  Notice the cave in the distance.  I want to explore that some day.


The love chair.  We got some great shots of lovers sitting on this love throne.
Notice the locks on the bars.  The bordered the entire pathway.
Here are five that I love: Robb, Dan, Nicole, Michael, and Candice.  Notice that Candice has her eyes coverd  not that she is peering ove the edge and seeing that Michael legs are hanging over a sheer drop to the ocean.  She needs a daddy for her three beautiful kids.

So true. I was terrified. I was two second away from crying. Thanks for keeping the Italian dream alive. Miss that place.
