Default Just returned from Vacation in Italy/F.R.

I won a trip to Genoa Italy with my company. My wife & I decided to extend our stay 4 days, rent a car and take in the sights.

Waterfront in Genoa Italy where we started.


Old Streetscape


Italian coastline


Portofino


View of Med from our Hotel near Monaco


Famous Lowes Hairpin


Monaco tunnel - really hard right turn!

Dreaming of racing in Monte Carlo!


Galleria Ferrari


Had all Michael Shumacher Champion F-1 cars thru 2004


More Red!


Engine Art


ENZO!


Topped off the trip to leaning tower of Pisa (I'm saving you all from the typical tourist holding up the tower pic)


Driving on the Itallian AutoStrada was fun...but I kinda missed the S2000...FYI, Hertz Rental's tiny Peugeot 206 4dr. will top out at 172 kph (about 106 mph)

Great pictures. I remember there were cables holding up the tower in 2001. They were doing a lot of work back then. I guess they finished the work and the tower is cable free. There is no place like Italy for Italian pasta.
