Genoa

Today we are in Genoa, the birthplace of Christopher Columbus.  We didn't do much touring.  Here are a few pictures from the ship and the port.

The Lighthouse - erected in 1543
The "Pencil" - An interesting octagonal building.
Cruise terminal
D’Albertis Castle - Gothic revival from the late 19th century
Statue in the garden of the Villa del Principe - home of General Andrea Doria
