Love at first sight: il Castello di Lerici. Then… THE SEA. Immense. Makes you feel so happy to be there. Relaxing amazing view
I wonder how it is in summer, but now it’s winter and beaches are all for seagulls. They look small from afar, but not when they get a little bit closer…
Pay attention while walking! Seagulls are everywhere, doing anything but flying: screeching, strolling, using boats as perches. Sometimes even ignoring each other
When there are now modern racing sailboats, there were once wooden sailboats. Hard to imagine today?
George Gordon Byron was an English lord, and a romantic poet of the second wave, friend of Percy and Mary Shelley
Are we into a restaurant, or looking from outside, or in both? Just a dream, or… Italy Dream?
Villa Magni in San Terenzo, where Mary and Percy lived together with their friends. It was also the mansion of the tragedy for Mary waiting for news of Percy lost at sea. His body was then found in Viareggio
A walk from castello to castello. From the castle of Lerici to the castle of San Terenzo. On the return way, colours may vary. But not for some strange reason, only because the sun is moving
Both in Lerici and San Terenzo the lungomare is king. The beauty of these places lies in a few historical points, usually a small church, with nothing more to add
The bay of Lerici in black and white effect marks the end of a happy day trip
What next after a beautiful quiet day? This was just a preview. Portovenere awaits on the other side…
