Ciao Amalfi

Ready for Summer on the Amalfi Coast!

Ready for summer!

June has arrived, and with it comes warm the summer days pefect for enjoying the beaches on the Amalfi Coast and the fresh summer produce of Campania. I am ready! To celebrate here on Ciao Amalfi, I have replaced the banner photo of the Amalfi Coast on the top of the blog to a photo I took recently in Amalfi. It captures the excitement of the beginning of summer for me! I will be changing the banner image every month now to highlight different seasons and locations around the Amalfi Coast. I hope you enjoy the new photos each month!


What are your summer plans?

    Hi Laura – I love your new blog photo, and such a great idea to change each month, cannot wait to see what else you come up with, it will be great anyway.

    I have no summer plans, more Autumn-Winter..not unless I find a traveller partner, to come with me..it would be too expensive for me to rent an apartment on my own, but also I like to share my holidays..like the company.

    Look out in the post 🙂

    Ciao Anne! Happy you like the new blog photo! I am also so excited about changing the banner photos monthly. It will be fun to try to capture something about the Amalfi Coast for each month. Fun!

    Hope you have some good Autumn-Winter travel plans to look forward to! Oooh…. love getting mail! Can’t wait! 🙂

    Ciao Scintilla! Grazie! Yes, I took that down near where the SITA buses and tourist buses park in Amalfi. Good eye! Amalfi has those distinctive cement stones along the port that are shaped like jacks.

    Unfortunately there will be no Naples or Amalfi for my wife and I this year. We’ll be hanging around the house and probably go to Cape Cod.

A spectacular view of a truly spectacular place as A spectacular view of a truly spectacular place as I flew out of Naples yesterday morning. A little bit delayed due to Winter Storm Olive in the midwest, but I was greeted in central Nebraska by blue skies and flocks of Sandhill cranes and snow geese. “Oh, to love what is lovely” as Mary Oliver wrote about that joyful experience of seeing snow geese golden in a sunny sky. ✨

Non Amalfi Coast question. Do you wake up in the m Non Amalfi Coast question. Do you wake up in the morning with music or a song in your head? I do nearly every morning and it’s curious to me what shows up. Usually it’s something I’ve been listening to, but sometimes it’s really random, like someone’s left the music room door slightly ajar in the brain. This morning it was a jaunty version of “Loch Lomond” from the 1940s sung by Maxine Sullivan. (You’d think that would be from the random category but I actually listened to it yesterday.) So that’s what was swinging about in my head as I took a walk early this morning. 🎶
Happy Burns Night! I love a country that has a hol Happy Burns Night! I love a country that has a holiday for their national poet. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Here’s one of my favorite poems he wrote.

Musing On The Roaring Ocean
by Robert Burns

Musing on the roaring ocean, 
Which divides my love and me; 
Wearying heav’n in warm devotion, 
For his weal where’er he be. 

Hope and Fear’s alternate billow 
Yielding late to Nature’s law, 
Whispering spirits round my pillow, 
Talk of him that’s far awa. 

Ye whom sorrow never wounded, 
Ye who never shed a tear, 
Care-untroubled, joy-surrounded, 
Gaudy day to you is dear. 

Gentle night, do thou befriend me, 
Downy sleep, the curtain draw; 
Spirits kind, again attend me, 
Talk of him that’s far awa!
