Log Entry:
Took the three hour run from Portofino to Portovenere in La Spezia harbor. On the way we stopped in front of one of the Cinque Terre (five villages, or terraces) which are located on cliffs that overhang the sea. Took a walk in the sea level village and then hiked up to some of the higher ones. Portovenere is a pretty 12th century citadel and village that has much history, as well as many shops and restaurants to explore.
