After spending 3 pleasant days in Arenzano (and completing an oil change), we left there on Monday morning and motored further up the coast toward France (actually south-west down the coast) to Savona.  Before entering the harbour, we anchored just outside off the beach and had a lunch break and a quick swim around the boat.

 

Savona is a very old town and claims to have produced two popes in the 1500’s.  The old harbour – where we are moored – is right in the middle of the old town and we had to wait for a footbridge to open to allow us in.  A very quiet and peaceful spot ; so we decided to stay a second night and give us time to look around the old town and its fort.  Tomorrow we will aim for Loano.

 

Ron.
