Vernazza, the second northernmost village of Cinque Terre. I took approximately 4,000 pictures from this spot – it's so gorgeous!

Walking through the old town of Antibes (which can look REALLY old), you'll find many houses that look like this one.

Lac de Trécolpas – a lake atop a mountain – was our reward for a "leisurely" 4-hour hike with a 1 kilometer elevation change. Worth it!

We visited Eze Village again this morning, and you can read about our hike here a couple weeks ago on our blog!

Probably my favorite view from three days of hiking in Cinque Terre National Park. This one is from the path between Riomaggiore and Manarola (seen at the bottom). You can also see Corniglia in the near background and Monterosso in the distance!
