It's always nice to get at least one keeper after blasting through 40 or so rolls. :) The Cinque Terre is indeed a beautiful place; strangely it seems that it's not terribly popular in guide books by anyone other than Rick Steves. It seemed like half of the tourists from the US were carrying the Rick Steves guide; certainly all of the ones we spoke to were using his books. At times it felt like we were all part of one big cult... I hope you make it there. Best, Aaron Peter Klein wrote: >Now *that's* a keeper, Aaron!
