Watch Amalfi win the 66th Regata delle Antiche Rep Watch Amalfi win the 66th Regata delle Antiche Repubbliche Marinare d'Italia! The incredible Amalfi team came from behind to win right at the end. Venice came in second followed by Genoa and then Pisa. There’s nothing like the energy of seeing all of Amalfi cheering on their team … and then the explosion of celebrations when they win! This is my third Regata in Amalfi and the third time I’ve had the joy of seeing the team win. After the past two years, this joy was exhilarating! Grazie @regata_armi_amalfi and everyone at the @comunedamalfi for a wonderful experience! 💙 #goamalfigo

Last month I did a mini staycation in Positano and Last month I did a mini staycation in Positano and I loved it! Even though it’s just down the coast from Amalfi, I enjoyed the quiet of the early morning and breakfast with those famous Positano views. And a relaxed dinner without a long (and twisty!) drive home. This view from above Arienzo beach is one of my favorites of Positano.
