I’ve discovered a couple of very good bloggers originating from the Cinque Terre region. They both are doing a very good job of keeping the world updated on the progress being made after the terrible floods and mudslides of October 27, 2011.

I just found out about the flood when I checked the Vernazza site as a reference for a painting. I am so shocked and saddened to see what happened to my favorite town in the world. I am keeping Vernazza in my thoughts and prayers.
