Genova has a boating event from October 6 to 14 and therefore I thought this
would not be a good time to stay in Genova with so many people. Much to our
surprise we discovered that many of the hotels in outlying areas have been
booked for this event. Hence it was difficult to find accommodations in Nervi,
but we eventually we did, but at a much higher price than Genova. It is not
surprising, given the beauty of the area. Nervi is a town that stretches along
the sea side, with a small inner harbour. The boats are all stored away and the
only boats we saw were kayakers practicing in the sheltered harbour. We bought
a bottle of wine and some ice cream and enjoyed the afternoon in the harbour.
Nervi also has a long boardwalk that stretches for 4 km, to the next town of Bogliasco
that we will pass by tomorrow. The highlight of the day was my mishap on the
rocky shore. It is such a beautiful shoreline and we walked down the steps
leading to the water’s edge. Julie was ready to take my picture, but as I
stepped the rocks I went sliding on my butt. Two men came to help and Julie
made sure she got my picture.
