Rainy Days in Amalfi Town

 

Ciao Amalfi Coast Blog Rain Fountain

 

On a perfect sunny day, this fountain near the waterfront in Amalfi of two figures huddling under an umbrella might seem a little out of place. Today, as the rain poured down, these two seemed to fit right in with all the Amalfitans and tourists huddling under umbrellas nearby. The water poured down off the umbrellas, ran down the streets and into the rough sea.

It’s not just maltempo, or bad weather, that has arrived in Amalfi. Over the last week winter arrived! Or, at least, Amalfi has packed up its summer feel and stored it away for next year. In the course of one week, all the small boats that line the harbor have been removed, as well as the temporary docks they build every summer. And just in time before the rough seas came! Here’s a short video from Amalfi today:

 

 

Amalfi in the rain and during the winter months has a different sort of beauty, but is nonetheless striking. Today reminded me of that and made me look forward to the coming months.

    The sea looks rough, but it can still bring magical moments, I love the sound of it. Not too rough though!

    Ciao Anne! Yes, the sea is certainly magical here year round. I just can't believe it wasn't long ago that I was swimming at that beach!

    Ciao Chuck! I love the sound of the sea when it is rough. I could watch it for hours. Glad you enjoyed!

    Ciao Linda Lou! I second that! 🙂 I love the change of seasons and the different times of the year here. There is always something different to see!

I’m back! After some time in the USA with family I’m back! After some time in the USA with family, I’m back home in Amalfi and adjusting to the time with my usual early morning walks. What’s not usual is that there are so many people out and about now compared to when I left in July. At 7:30am this morning there were already people set up at the beach to get those first sun rays that you can see just hitting the beach. Very clever! The water is so clear and pretty in the morning. I enjoy watching the changes that come throughout the season. This morning there were two guys tossing a football on the beach. That was unexpected! 🏈
