During my trip to Italy, I had been a certified scuba diver for about nine months, so I try to get down as often as possible to reinforce what I’ve just learned because otherwise you can die. No biggie. Plus, I would love to dive in as many seas as possible, so given we were already on the Mediterranean, I had to go in. From the Cinque Terre, we got in the car at 6:00 am to make it to Santa Margherita Ligure by 8:00 am (it was about another two-three hours to Nice). Santa Margherita Ligure is right next to super fancy Portofino…
