Our last day of riding on this holiday was a beautiful sunny day again, we’ve had almost perfect weather the whole time. It’s been fairly warm by Canadian standards, between 25 and 30 celsius, but not bad for Italy in summer.
We headed up the coast passing through many seaside towns and cities such as Noli, Savona, Varazze, Arenzano and then into Genova. This part of Liguria is so densely populated that you never really feel like you left a place and came to a new one, they just blend together. The resort towns are all quite beautiful with beaches, bars, shops, and beachgoers everywhere. Now that it’s summer holiday time it is getting quite busy.
There was another bike pathway between Varazze and Arenzano about 10 kms, which we took but it wasn’t as good as the other 2 we rode. The surface wasn’t as smooth and there were less services available but it got us off the busy road for a while.
Back at the Hotel Chopin we got the bike dismantled and again wondered where the time went. It felt like we had just begun yet it was over. Time to start planning for a new adventure.
When out for dinner that evening we (Tara) unfortunately spotted another rat. Perhaps we won’t come back to Genova. Living in rat-free Alberta makes us a bit sensitive on that subject.
