Today, I was thinking about a science fiction type of technology. I was dreaming about being able to step into a booth and instantly beam myself anywhere on the surface of our globe. If it were possible, where would I like to spend Christmas Eve, I was wondering?
We visited the Cinque Terre three years ago in the fall, so I had to check on the Net to see what the weather might be like now on the Italian Mediterranean. Apparently, it is not a great deal different than right here, meaning it's about 7C (45F) today. That would be fine as it'd still be fun to find a warm restaurant on Christmas Eve for a little Italian food and the view.
I noticed that Street View had done just a little part of the cliff walking path near Manarola. Being able to virtually take the hike between the five cliff-side cities should be a priority for the Street View staff. Or better yet, we should go back and do it again ourselves in person!
