Portovenere, Italy Part 2


To continue with pictures, this was the beautiful coastal view from above the church in Portovenere.




These were the picturesque multicolored houses that lined the water. This was our view from the boat! We were in a very small marina, right in the middle of old town. You can see a smidge of the church from the first picture in the top right hand side.



Leaving Portovenere behind was somewhat sad. I'd have to say it was the prettiest place we've been. And having the city with so much to explore five steps off the boat was incredible! Just incredible.




And just a little side note of yachting I thought I'd share.... Mealtimes are a rush of plates in and out of the galley as our chef prepares one awesome dish after another, but I grabbed my camera and shot this dessert quickly because it was just too cool not to share. Made with homemade bruleed marshmallows, chocolate cake and graham cracker, she created S'mores Deconstructed! Yum!

HI Jessica,
I love your pics. What camera do you use?

Jessica said...

Thanks Carlos. I use a Canon Powershot A630. It's a clunky little thing but it takes nice pictures for a point and shoot. :)

Jessica, I love your blog girl! Inspiration to get out and really explore when on dock. We picked up our first charter today so will now be cruising about now. Unfortunately my comp has broken so can't post photos on blog at the mo =). Keep doing what you do :).

I LOVE that s'more! I can't wait to go camping and have one. Of course, it just won't be the same as yours.

Did you get to eat one? Was it yummy?
