We set off today from our luxury hotel (discount price!!) after the gourmet breakfast. We caught the train to Sorrento and then found our way to the bus for Amalfi.
It was a gorgeous day, the sun shone and the water reflected the blue, it couldn’t have been more perfect. There was some debate about whether we should get off at Positano and have lunch there as per a suggestion from Chris, but we wanted to go through to Amalfi and the option of going back to Positano for lunch looked rather too hard by the time you walk all the way down to the beach it would have taken hours. So…we opted to alight in Amalfi, we did a walk around the town and found a great place for lunch… Ristorante “Il Chiostro” for future reference…I had Calamari which is something I was really hanging out for and I was very happy!!
Then we looked up the bus timetable and realised we had to bolt so I went off to get the tickets and ‘stop the bus’ and left Tull to pay etc. We got the bus, made a perfect connection with the train in Sorrento that took us back to Napoli. We arrived back at the hotel around 6, had an hour of downtime and then went off to a terrific restaurant (‘Lombardi’ for future reference) where we got into a lively discussion with the waiter and other diners…finished up with a Limoncello and came home.
That’s it for another day. So much more to do in this part of the world. I think maybe to Pompeii and Herculean tomorrow as the weather seems to be good again.
