Trail to Corniglia	Corniglia - no access by water, just a cliff on the other side of the city	Stepped vineyard just outside of Corniglia
Monorail! This system is used to transport grapes all around Cinque-Terre - you can just see the rail running back up the other side of the valley behind Jennifer	Snackin' on the rocks at the shore beneath Corniglia, watching the crabs and waiting for the train	View of our hotel room from the street in Vernazza Note the laundry below our window! (Straight above the guy with the walking stick, and slightly right)
A couple of old ladies leaning out their windows to talk across from our hotel room	View down the main street of Vernazza from our hotel room	Vernazza at sunset - we look forward to returning.
