My people were so gracious and the wine was inexpensive but fantastic. I also got chased by a young Italian man on his bicycle for stealing his love interest. As he furiously pedaled at me (only to repeatedly dodge at the last second), he kept yelling "Bella! Bella! But I love you!!" to a girl he had met only about 2 hours earlier. Riomaggiore was cool (pretty sure that's the skyline), but I think that one of my favorite parts was the statue in Monterosso (the link below). http://homepage.sunrise.ch/homepage/avong/cinque_terre/images/monterosso_statue.jpg Monterosso was also the place where my friends and I waited on the platform for 4 hours (on a Thursday afternoon) for a train that doesn't run on Thursdays. Brilliant... Skyline - I visited in 2002 right after graduation. My people were so gracious and the wine was inexpensive but fantastic.

In fact, way back when Mike D. was asking people to submit skyline photos, I think I submitted a few interesting satellite images, too. One of those was Disney World, so I've already seen this one. Skyline-- I actually know this one, but I've never been. Satellite– I agree with the others.

The coolest thing I've ever done there was participate in an intramural canoe league with my coworkers. We got to race other teams around those two islands in the upper left of the image. We had to start at about 4am to avoid people seeing us, and being one of about 60 people in that whole place felt really neat. I must admit this is probably the easiest satellite for me.

No idea for the skyline but the satellite looks kind of like a theme park (Disney World ?). Whoah I got Rio and the Great Wall, without any research too!
