A Saturday in Amalfi
Now that the weather is sunny and warm, daily life in Amalfi is starting to take on its summer feel. The harbor is busy with boats, buses are lined up three rows deep and there are people everywhere enjoying the town. A couple of weeks ago I was in Amalfi on a beautiful Saturday, and I took some ...
Photo Friday: Sorrento Sunset
For as much as I love Amalfi, the sunsets just aren't as striking as you'll see from Positano or on the northern side of the Sorrento Peninsula. The Capo di Conca juts out into the sea beyond the town of Conca dei Marini blocking out the best view of the setting sun. While I do love watching the ...

Liberty … At Last!
For those of you who have been following this blog for the past two years, you've read about the many ... many ... many walks I go on. While I do love walking and exploring the Amalfi Coast on foot, there are times when it is inconvenient—or downright exhausting—having my own two feet and the public ...
Photo Friday: Small, Medium & Extra Large
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 ...
Artistic Garden Cats
The temperatures have been warming up during the day on the Amalfi Coast, but it's still cool enough in the evenings that our long haired cats haven't started shedding their winter coats yet. The other day I opened the window to look for them, and this is what I found directly below the window. I'm ...
Photo Friday: 15 KM in Positano
While sitting and waiting for the Tour Guide to fit his car into a remarkable small space near Positano, I was looking at this old stone mile marker on the side of the road. I don't normally see photos in bianco e nero, but the combination of the worn lettering of the sign, the old Mini Cooper and ...
A Happy Birthday Bougainvillea!
On Monday, I mentioned that the bougainvillea in Positano was already blooming and shared a photo of a bright pink variety that I love. It so happens that this is also the Tour Guide's favorite color of bougainvillea, and he was the one who first pointed out to me how beautiful it is on Capri and in ...
An Evening in Positano
When the weather is warm, I love the early evening hours on the Amalfi Coast. The tourists buses have all departed to head back to Sorrento and Naples, the beach umbrellas are closed and stacked up ready for the next day and the locals come out to enjoy an evening stroll through town. As the colors ...
Photo Friday: The 13th
Last week I was walking along a quiet stone pathway in Ravello, and the sun shining on this old wooden doorway caught my attention. I stopped, admired all the different beige colored textures and tones, and then continued on my way. After a few steps, I stopped again, dug through my bag and returned ...
