Glorious April Weather

Leave me alone with a view like that and some sort of photographic device and you can bet that I'll try to capture it in some way. That's what I did with my several year old simple Samsung phone this morning when looking out at the blue sky and sea. What a glorious spring day! It's just so ...

Winter Sunshine

There's nothing quite like when the sun comes out in February after a rainy spell. There's the warmth of the sunshine to dry everything out, but also that sense of spring on its way. It's hopeful, warm and irresistible. And not just for the Amalfitani! We took an afternoon stroll in Amalfi this ...

Spring Showers on the Amalfi Coast

This has been one of those days that just couldn't make up its mind. Beautiful spring morning ... sure thing! Sudden thunder and hailstorm with pounding down rain ... why not? My husband called mid morning to say batten down the hatches (well, he didn't really say that ... but now I wonder if ...

On a Sunny Saturday in April

It amazes me each spring just how quickly we can forget certain things. Dinner with the gas heater blazing by the table for warmth, the hot water bottle (or cat) sitting on my lap to keep my fingers warm enough to keep typing and that old "for the rain it raineth every day" attitude. But then one ...

The Quiet Season

Things have been pretty quiet around here on Ciao Amalfi lately, and I apologize for the lack of updates! In some ways it's quite natural as life slows down this time of year to savor a bit of quiet on the Amalfi Coast. After the buzz and celebrations of the holidays, the rest of January and ...

Autumn Colors on the Amalfi Coast

Much of the beautiful autumn colors that I look forward to each year on the Amalfi Coast have been blown away by a few big rain and wind storms. However, on the drive to the airport in Naples last week, I was happy to see some beautiful colors still lingering up in the mountains above Tramonti. I ...

The End of the Season

One day the beaches will be dotted with sunbathers enjoying the last warm autumn days while holding onto summer for as long as possible and then the next the beaches will be barren and covered ...

Well, not quite yet on the Amalfi Coast. September is often one of the most pleasant months of the year, with weather still warm enough ...

Ready for the Beach

Yesterday afternoon I looked down and saw that the Marina Grande beach in Amalfi had been prepared for the summer with its pebbles neatly raked back into place and a freshly painted blue walkway leading down to the sea. It was fun catching the geometric pattern of the rocks, because it certainly ...

Today is an unspeakably sad day for the Amalfi Coa Today is an unspeakably sad day for the Amalfi Coast after the tragic bus accident this morning in Ravello where Nicola Fusco, a young bus driver only 29 years old, lost his life. Investigations are currently underway to determine the cause and I won’t share the upsetting details. The road to Ravello is currently closed and it’s not clear when it will reopen. Nicola was a kind, talented, and experienced driver—the third generation of drivers in his family—a family very close to ours. My husband has been a guide with all three generations and watched Nicola grow up. This is something that shouldn’t happen, shouldn’t ever happen, but it’s something we all fear here. Our hearts are with the Fusco family and to everyone who Nicola’s life touched. 🖤

To say this is a big deal for the fans doesn’t even begin to describe it. I’ve been watching videos from Amalfi, Sorrento, Ischia and all around Campania. Here was a quiet moment in Atrani before the celebrations began. ⚽️
