We are traveling through Italy this Summer and we would like to stay a couple of nights in Cinque Terra. We are traveling by car and I know that cars are not aloud. What do you suggest we do with the car or maybe a place outside of the towns where we can stay and then travel by train to Cinque Terra.
Looking forward to your suggestions.

In your piece for yahoo about saving on gasoline, you said that “premium” gasoline requires “more compressing”. This is not correct. It is true that engines that run on Premium have higher compresson ratios. However,the premium fuel has more side chains on the molecule which slows the burning rate and creates more push and less bang. This means the burn rate across the cylinderhead is different than regular fuel.This means if you are paying for premium fuel for an engine rated for regular you are not getting what you are paying for.
Thank you for your attempt at explaining this to the technically chalenged.
