A Day in Genoa

From Imperia to Genoa it's only  a 1-and-half hour train ride.
So no excuse not to go.
A more serious reason to visit this city is of course the fact that Christopher Columbus hales from this town.
But the main reason is: Spend some Good Times with friend Remo!
 The new owner of sailing yacht Jan Haring...
Sweet memories.


So Remo met us at Genoa Train Station 
and took care of us for the day.
The town has loads of beautiful stone buildings,
and/but the main is of course the connection with the sea.


This monument tells it All. 



Famous harbour corner stones..
from where many nautical exploring trips started.


Time for a Coffee Break....
And Off.... to more city sight seeing.






And this, as it's said.. 
was Little Christopher's home address.



Chris-kun's neighbourhood.


The people of Genoa know what is yummy.

Thank you Remo.
It was an awesome day.

Ciao for Now.

  1. Net je 'post' gelezen. Remo had me al verteld dat het leuk was geweest. Komen jullie nog eens terug? Dan laten we jullie de Italiaanse 'boerenbuiten' zien ;-)

    1. Hi Caroline, thanx voor je comment. En dank je wel voor je uitnodiging.
      Half Maart zijn we weer aan boord van Shogun @ Imepria. Maar dan zijn we zwsl druk met de boot klaarmaken voor de trip naar Spanje & Portugal, 1 week later. Door de Schengen-regels zijn er helaas maar weinig dagen om relaxed rond te varen. Maar..... je weet maar nooit....
      Alles wel met de familie?
      Sayonara,
