Photo Friday: Small, Medium & Extra Large

Boats and Cruise Ship in Amalfi

Last weekend the new Marina cruise ship from Oceania was in Amalfi, and while walking along the harbor I caught this image.  The tiny boat named Stenella, the medium size Sorrento Mini Cruise and the extra large Marina cruise ship all lined up perfectly by size. It only lasted a couple of minutes before they were all facing different directions again, but it made me smile to see the different sized boats that come into the Amalfi harbor so neatly organized. Happy weekend wishes!!

    I love your blog. We lived in Sicily for 4 years, and traveled north several times. Augh we miss it so much, but this is a great virtual escape to Italy. I love the pictures of the little common things and the grand, unusual perfect shots too. I’d love to see the market again, to hear the music of the venders each trying to out do the others to sell his own merchandise; especially when it was close to 13 ora! I remember the smell of parmesan cheese and Oh! the giarosto pollo..makes me weak in the knees! I can nearly smell it and feel it through your fotos!! Molto Grazie!!!

      Ciao Celeste! What an experience to live in Sicily for four years. I haven’t been down there yet, but I hope to one day soon! I’m so happy to hear that you enjoy Ciao Amalfi … I’ll keep those little experiences of daily life coming so you can be transported back to Italy! 🙂

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. 🎶

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!
