Exploring the Coastline

In the days leading up to class, we all decided to explore our surroundings through a tour of the local beaches. Trips to beaches at Nervi, Camogli, and Bogliasco culminated in adventures ranging from climbing down a wall of rocks to reach our first swim in the Mediterranean to a giant game of human checkers.

As we got used to the extremely salty sea and scampering around barefoot on sharp rocks, we also became familiar with the local bus and train systems. All in all, the sea, sun and seeing the sights were not a bad way to spend the last few days of summer!

Here are some of the pictures from our self-directed day trips along the Ligurian coast.
