Default Portofino this afternoon

After getting sick of hanging around the house today (slow work day) I
decided to go for a cruise on the scooter to Portofino to take some
photos. For those whose don't know of it, it's a rich kids playground
in Liguria, Italy, and it's very beautiful.

All the pics are fresh from the oven!

Years ago I stayed for two months n the then almost new Portofino
Hotel in Redondo Beach California. There was a brass plaque on the
wall that said the hotel and harbour were modeled on Portofino in
Italy and was almost identical.
After all these years I can say "Bloody Liars!"
