Flooding and mudslides in Cinque Terre

Placeholder

There were terrible rains and mudslides in Cinque Terre about 10 days after we were there.
I'll post some of my "before" photos, but here are some from an Italian newspaper:

I found it through an American girl living in Liguria's blog. I'll post one of her updates "Prima-e-dopo", but if you also read her earlier posts, you see how awful the mud was/is.

Monterosso

This church was directly across from our apartment in Monterosso al Mare
