Fascinating flower of YET unknown specie... :P
Nice flower that resembled an orchid but OF COURSE it is not an orchid.

The guy singing and Corniglia wine bar. The whole atmosphere was great, everyone sitting in the small street drinking marvellous wine and listening to blues/italian folk music.
Ah! Kevin, Lankmar and Kyss finally together after a long time...

Usually populated by icons of the Virgin Mary, this one features a biblical figure called "Drunken Dwarf".

More sadness as the last breakfast together is about to happen.
Tragedy strikes as we all know we are about to leave!
Though we were not happy about leaving the appetite was QUITE good nonetheless!
