June 27th

Wednesday June 27th Today is all about the beach. We took the train which goes through tunnels to each town of Cinque Terre. We went to the last town, Monterosso, we found us some beach chairs with umbrellas to rent.  We spent the day floating in the sea and lounging in our chairs with drinks. We had a lunch of sandwiches on the beach.  We took a ferry boat back to our hotel. The views from the water of the towns was amazing. We had some dinner, then took the walk with the girls to the a bar overlooking the sea. One drink there was all it took to get this girl tipsy. I  also had a yummy nutella filled brioches. We all thought we had used enough sunscreen, But we didn't , poor Robbie is as sunburned as I've ever seen him. Jill is pretty red in spots. Me a wee bit. Emily stayed mostly under the umbrella. Some of today was spent regretting my just wing it attitude to this portion of the trip. We spent a good deal of time figuring out the best way to get to France. Flying was not the plan but it turns out to be the most cost efficient and fastest. So tomorrow we will get to fly again :(
