According to our hostess she, was once very very rich in Genova

On the way to Genova, We almost ended up in Lichtenstein. I always wanted to go to a place that came into being because it was Enfeoffed. Anyway we didn't. "We" noticed the name of Treno station"Principe" just in time. And arrivee e Genova...

 

I love Genova.

 

Genova It has a hot Port Melbourne summer vibe.


 

 

Coolio appartimenti in the backgroundio.



It has Renzo Piano whom may or may not play but does design collections of them.

He also design a ride in the sky




 

Up there for seven minuti in the hotness. U see this...

and this

 

The porto antico It has roman Polanski ship of nothingness.

 

 

 

Genova It it had cristoforo colombusio casa of everythingness.

 

Genova it has the train to San margarita and the ferry to San fruttuoso. And the gorgeous waters of the tyrreanean sea..

genova It has a stuffed platypus in the museo de cultriositico. Didn't look real and they want a euro to foto so I say get stuffed youself.

genova It has the funicolari up and down and is by the automatics. No pilot needed. I sat in one for a whole botega de birra. Took 5 ups and 6 downs.

It has the oldest built lighthouse in the world according to the mistress of via caffaro.

If you tilts you head a bit you can just see it.

It was the richest city in the world until Napoleon stole everything according to the mistress of via Caffara. He also made the Genovese stop burying the dead inside the town walls and in the Chiesa. He thought it a little bourgeois. So the Genovese built a new cimitrrio just outside town. It is vast, it has an unknown number of monument memorials mausoleumios some as big as a house or even a chiesa. they really showed Nappy how to celebrate the passage from this life to the other side.

The war graves section is the saddest bit. So much for so little.




It also has the chiesa di San Lorenzo. But, this a specialists one, it had the holy remains the st John the bapptiserio in this mueblerio boxio.

 

Genova, It was the best arccitecturra in the world until the British bombed it during the second world war according to the mistress of via caffaro.

 

They missed a few things...

 

The beach the smart young things and the the mature couples go to in genova is called Nervi. It is a rock in the water at the bottom of steps worse than the old blue pool steps and a sign that has a message in words " poolutions appearshere". The pictograms that accompanying it look like this.

 

As the messagio i was in eenglaysio I thinks ok for Italiano go in. We enters the waters here. It was wet and lovely soft on you skins.

 

The strada nuova now called via garibaldi It has pebble mosaics of wonder like this.

 

He blow his trumpets about a few fishes.

 

 

 

Genova streets It has feets like this.

 

 

It has a Villetta de negri full of grotto with ponds with shark size goldfish like this

 

The Genovese think the live in a real snakes and ladders town even though there is not a literal translation of that phrase.

It has palm trees and plane trees and olive trees and conifer trees and vines hanging down the rock faces of the castelletta district that lend it a certain understated bourgeoise markiness. I was comfortable in the shade of the Castelletta at via caffara Portobello despite the intermittiancio ellecctriciusio.

 

The pesto Genovese is so green.

 

The focaccia de patate is only 30 cents.

The power goes off during the Uefa cup final live coverage. Probably why italia lost.

The sky and tyrrenean sea melt into each other due south of Genova.

No wonder Cristoforo became a sailor.

.

That is how Genova happened ....

 

 

I love Genova
