Ciao Amalfi

Amalfi, Banner · October 1, 2009

October Banner: Ciao Amalfi!

 

Ciao Amalfi Coast October 2009 Banner2 Full

 

After traveling around the Amalfi Coast this summer to Positano in July and Conca dei Marini last month with our banner images, it’s time for us to sail back in to Amalfi for October. This month you can enjoy a view of the watchtower of Amalfi, which is now a fabulously romantic restaurant connected to the Hotel Luna. I wish I was on that sailboat ready to enjoy these warm October days! Want to come along?

    Ciao Gil! I'm looking forward to sharing them with you. It's going to be another great month!

    Ciao Lucia! Ciao Anne! Ok, you're both in. We'll have a lovely blogger day out on the Amalfi Coast! 🙂

    Ciao Saretta! Thanks! It has been really nice and warm here. I see the first signs of fall, but it isn't in the temps for sure. The mosquitos haven't been too bad, but just yesterday I was tormenting one through the screen window. I know I'll pay for that someday soon, but I enjoyed it while it lasted! 🙂

When I walked by this ceramic table in Praiano, it When I walked by this ceramic table in Praiano, it reminded me of one of my favorite Italian words: garbuglio. It means a tangle or a mess. But not just any mess, a conspicuous and intricate mess. I think we can all find a few of those around these days. Now you know what to call it in Italian!
Completely unplanned, I ended up getting off the b Completely unplanned, I ended up getting off the bus in Pontone this morning instead of Minuta. The steps up between these two hamlets of Scala are quite steep, but it was a perfect autumn morning. Brilliant sun but a cool north breeze and the air full of the honeyed scent of sweet alyssum (which I can spot thanks to Giacomo from @cookeatsquare!) and birdsong. As a little reward to myself for the unexpected effort, I meandered a bit to enjoy the crimson vines and some sunflowers dancing in the breeze. Autumn is coming - even on the Amalfi Coast! 🍂
You have to look close for any signs of autumn in You have to look close for any signs of autumn in Amalfi. Surrounded mostly by olive, lemon, pines, and other types of evergreen trees, we don’t have much for fall foliage right in the center of town. Oh but I look! In the golden moments of the morning just as the sun hits Amalfi for the first time, I’m out there imagining autumn colors. 🍂

Mmmhmm autumn is definitely my favorite season. 🧡 This morning I woke up a bit earlier than my alarm and looked outside somewhat perplexed. The entire sky, the town—everything—had a burnt orange hue. A hurried lacing up of the shoes and still bleary eyed, but I just had to see it better for myself. It was a glorious sunrise. Now the rain has just gently started falling and I’m in full autumn ecstasy.

Later I’ll return to the piano to pick up where I left off yesterday learning this beautiful autumn waltz by @andreavanzo_composer. 🍂

It was fun to see the grapes on the same vines just before harvest begins. Swipe to the right to see the same grapes back in May. Happy autumn!
