Santa Margherita became a renowned tourist resort after World War II. Its port is also used for fishing activities. As you can tell by the dark skies, we did receive some rain today; but it didn’t dampen our spirits. We had a relaxed morning and walked along the seashore.
Many of the colorful buildings are quite beautiful with the faux finish on their exterior.
We hit the jackpot when were assigned our room which is a lovely suite.
In the afternoon, we took a very crowded public bus ride into Portofino. This quaint town is an Italian fishing village and vacation resort famous for its picturesque harbor and historical association with celebrity and artistic visitors. Below are two celebrity visitors you may recognize.
During our walk through the village, we saw their sculptures and botanical gardens.
More rain is predicted for tomorrow, but we hope to make it to Cinque Terra as long as it isn’t too heavy.
