This is post number eleven about our Italian trip. The previous posts are:
We actually tried to rent a car for our last-day journey from Vernazza to our late afternoon flight home from Milan, but we had terrible luck with rental cars on our trip. They kept messing up our reservations, or claiming we never had one. So we went with a train itinerary even though it involved four trains. But the train itinerary had the benefit of a 2-hour layover in Genova where none of us had ever been. It's the birthplace of Christopher Columbus!
We wandered down toward the waterfront and enjoyed a stroll through a flea market and past the aquarium. Then we stumbled across a beautiful church, the Basilica della Santissima Annunziata del Vastato.
Soon it was time to find a snack and board our next train to Milan. Maybe we'll get a chance to explore Genoa more in a future visit.
