Genoa

     Over the weekend the girls and I traveled to Genoa Italy and spent the day sightseeing and relaxing. Genoa is about two hours, by train, from Milan so we left early in the morning to try and get the full day! Genoa was located right on the coast and even though the day was a little cloudy, it was still one of the most beautiful cities that we have been to so far in Italy. From the color of all the houses and buildings, to the small narrow streets and finally the amazing view of the Mediterranean Sea, Genoa is just a sight to be seen!

After wandering the streets we decided to take a trip to see the "almost top" of Genoa, and it was absolutely beautiful! We spent the majority of the day looking out at the view and of course taking oh so many pictures!

After we finished our photo-shoot, we headed back down to the streets to grab a quick bit to eat. We ended up at a small restaurant and had one of the best meals ever! I ended up ordering the homemade pesto pasta (which was unbelievable) a chocolate desert and of course a glass of wine!

After our meal we decided to walk around and just explore the stores and streets. We ended up at the Piazza De Ferrari, which is one of the main squares of Genoa. The Cathedral was located here and of course it was amazing. I decided to go in a say a prayer for my Great Aunt that just passed away this month. I was upset that I was unable to be home when she passed but I wanted to say a prayer for her that she is okay and is reunited with my uncle who died a few years ago. Rest in Peace Aunt Mary, I love you and my prayers a with you. 

We soon left the Duomo and headed for the coast. Along the way we spotted the cutest little buggy EVER! I have always wanted a beetle when I was little so of course we had to take a picture!

Once we were done taking pictures with the buggy we caught a cab and headed for the coast! The coast was beautiful and we took a million photos along the rocks and the shore. The water was so blue and it was just so relaxing sitting on the rocks looking out to the sea.

Overall Genoa was amazing and we all had such a good day wandering the streets and taking so many pictures! Traveling with these girls is always so fun and I am so lucky to have met such great friends! I hope to be back Genoa…until then arrivederci!!
