Ciao Amalfi

A Summer Morning in Atrani

A beautiful Saturday morning and I needed a few photos for an article I was writing on the town of Atrani on the Amalfi Coast. There was only one thing to do … a photo outing! It was a peaceful morning, and I saw only a few people while I wandered through town taking photos. Head over to Charming Italy to see some of the photos and to read more about Atrani, a little town just around the corner from Amalfi. I was inspired by the quiet beauty of Atrani that morning and took quite a few photos. For all my readers who love Atrani, here are some of my favorites that didn’t make it into the article.  Enjoy!

    Lovely! Makes me miss one of our fave restaurants, L’Arcate, right on the waterfront – have you tried it?

    Hi, my fiance and I are considering heading to the Amalfi coast for our honeymoon. It looks absolutely perfect! The thing is though, the we are only able to go in late november to early December. Do you think a winter visit is a good idea? When do the Christmas markets and lights start up around Amalfi?

    Thanks!

      Ciao Evie,
      First …congratulations on your upcoming wedding!! I love the Amalfi Coast year round, but certainly most of the things that people come for are different from the summer to winter. But on a beautiful and clear day the views are still just as pretty! Also, at the end of November is the winter festival for Sant’ Andrea in Amalfi, which is a huge and very local celebration. It’s hard to say with the Christmas lights, but they’re usually up toward the beginning of December, and the shopping and events are fun. It’s just that it can be quite chilly … in that damp and humid sort of way. Like I said … I love it year round, and on this hot and sticky summer day … thinking of the quiet autumn days sounds pretty nice! 🙂
      Happy honeymoon planning!
      Laura

    As I sit in blazing hot Rome, I’m sighing over these amazing photos. I wish I was sitting right by the sea.

    Looks like the beach recovered nicely from the mudslide last summer, which I happened to be there when it occured.

      Ciao Tara! I imagine that was quite an impressive and scary experience! I was down in Atrani the morning after, and it was very sad. The beach was put back into place rather late this season … but today it was packed with people and looked back to normal!

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!

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!
