Pisolino – Napping in Amalfi

Ciao Amalfi Coast Blog Pisolino

It didn’t matter to this piccione all the hubbub of the jets and ferries busily coming in and out of port, or the tourists laughing, smiling and snapping photos nearby. All this tan and white pigeon cared about was getting in his afternoon pisolino, or nap, in a sunny spot by the sea. I think it had just the right idea. Wishing you all a restful weekend!

    So calm isn't he or she.

    Is it really a pigeon and not a seagull?

    Is it the same as this one I snapped recently in Marta Laura do you think?

    Ciao Saretta! I agree! At least it has let up some this August. It's been quite lovely here, but those couple of weeks in July were rough!

    Ciao Lucia! I do… thanks! I had missed that. That's one of the reason's I love sharing photos with others. 🙂

    Ciao Linda! It was a pigeon, but its unusual colors caught my attention. That's a great shot of the seagull!

    Ciao Eleonora! I was doing some zzzzzing in Amalfi today in the sun. 🙂

    Thanks Laura, it is interesting the unusual colours of both the seagull and the pigeon.

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. ⚽️
