Genova, Italy / Mediterranean Coast



We know it as Genoa, but this is where Christopher Columbus is from. We stopped just long enough to stretch our legs and we saw their nicely renovated port area that reminded us of Baltimore of all places. Renzo Piano is from here as well and had buildings and structures in the port. The bank here is where the first check was ever issued! We took a leisurely drive along the beautiful Mediterranean coast and ate a picnic lunch on a rocky beach and had gelato for dessert. For those of you who haven’t experience gelato – you can get the real thing in Indianapolis at Gelato da Vinci . Take a look at our Genova and coastal photos.
