Photo Friday: Ischia Still Life

 

Ciao Amalfi Coast Blog Ischia Still Life

 

Last month I visited the island of Ischia for the first time. As the largest island in the Bay of Naples, one day is only enough to get a taste of the Isola Verde, or Green Island. Wandering around the town of Ischia Porto, this mural showing the distinctive Castello Aragonese and old-fashioned fishing boats caught my attention. The sunlight was harsh and yet the mural felt cool, the paint peeling off echoing the same red hue as the sun faded scooter. It is an image I’m happy to have brought home with me from a beautiful day on Ischia!

    Thanks, Andi!! 🙂

    Ciao Linda! Yes, I would highly recommend planning more than a day trip to Ischia. Capri makes a great day trip, but Ischia needs more time for sure.

    Ciao Saretta! I hope to go back soon and explore more of Ischia. We just zoomed past most of the seaside towns on the island, but each one looked like it would be lovely to explore.

    Ciao Anne! I could certainly spend a year exploring Italy! 🙂

    Ciao Pat! I was walking by quickly, but I'm glad I stopped and snapped this picture. It ended up being my favorite shot from the day on Ischia.

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. ⚽️
