Photo Friday: Christmas in Minori

Minor Christmas Tree 2010

The Christmas lights on the Amalfi Coast are pretty this year just about everywhere you go. I couldn’t resist quickly snapping a photo of the unusual white Christmas tree in Minori when we stopped to see the lights there last week. It’s a rather whimsical creation surrounded by blue angels and white swags with stars. Creativity seems to be the keyword with Christmas trees on the Amalfi Coast this year!

      Ciao Peter! Oh, you should see Salerno then. No, I mean you should get in the car right now and go see the lights in Salerno. 🙂 They are crazy and whimsical and so unexpectedly beautiful!

    How magical! I love the way they decorate in Italy for Christmastime! (though it’s been many years since I was there for Christmas!)
    This is especially lovely.

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. 🎶

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!

This morning—after four days of rainy and cloudy mornings—I watched sunrise over the Cilento coastline across the Gulf of Salerno. Late morning it started raining again and it hasn’t stopped. This little pocket of beauty was exhilarating!
