Camogli and San Fruttuosso

Today I caught a ferry to an abbey only accessible by hiking trail (and ferry). The Abbey of San Fruttuosso looks like some mystical Pirate cove, with it's azure waters and dramatic cliffs. Ironically the Tore Doria that's built there is made to defend from Pirates. But anyway, that was really fun. Later, I just started walking in one direction away from the town and I kept just going up stairs. It had just rained and there was lots of moss about, it felt very refreshing, like a rainforest. It reminded me a lot of Madeira with its temperate forestry. Eventually the path led me to a church atop a cliff overlooking Camogli and the rest of the Ligurian coast. For dinner I ate at La Camogliese and had Testaroli Pesto (much more yum than last night's pesto), Tiramisu and a shot of limoncello. I'm gonna miss Camogli a lot. For someone that doesn't like seafood all that much, this fishing town sure had a lot to offer.Read more
