La Spezia, Italy

After Venice I was in La Spezia which is in a region called Cinque Terre. It's a Mediterranean coast region. I wasnt there for long, and it rained for both the days so it was a pretty relaxed couple of days in terms of seeing the city and camera action. Cant be 'on' all the time! The region is pretty well-known. If you ask anyone where to go for great beaches usually they'll say Cinque Terre or Puglia. La Spezia is in a Gulf so it's just a harbour, no beaches. Perfect for rainy weather.
