Christmas Scenes in Amalfi

Christmas in Amalfi 1

With sunshine and unseasonably warm temperatures, this has been one of the most beautiful Christmas seasons I’ve experienced so far on the Amalfi Coast. Although it has been a busy time of year, much like this entire year has been, I’ve been enjoying glimpses of the holiday season in Amalfi. I couldn’t resist sharing the colors and festive atmosphere with you on this Christmas day.

The Pasticceria Pansa in Amalfi is super busy this time of year like all the bakeries, with everyone stopping to buy Christmas desserts and sweets. The windows are particularly beautiful this year … and full of tempting treats!

You can even get chocolate that says “Buon Natale,” which means Merry Christmas. The panettone from Pansa is out of this world delicious!

Christmas in Amalfi 4

Several fountains in Amalfi are decorated for the holidays with nativity scenes, or presepe. Here is one of them that has an elaborate scene above and below the water.

A spectacular view of a truly spectacular place as A spectacular view of a truly spectacular place as I flew out of Naples yesterday morning. A little bit delayed due to Winter Storm Olive in the midwest, but I was greeted in central Nebraska by blue skies and flocks of Sandhill cranes and snow geese. “Oh, to love what is lovely” as Mary Oliver wrote about that joyful experience of seeing snow geese golden in a sunny sky. ✨

Non Amalfi Coast question. Do you wake up in the m Non Amalfi Coast question. Do you wake up in the morning with music or a song in your head? I do nearly every morning and it’s curious to me what shows up. Usually it’s something I’ve been listening to, but sometimes it’s really random, like someone’s left the music room door slightly ajar in the brain. This morning it was a jaunty version of “Loch Lomond” from the 1940s sung by Maxine Sullivan. (You’d think that would be from the random category but I actually listened to it yesterday.) So that’s what was swinging about in my head as I took a walk early this morning. 🎶
Happy Burns Night! I love a country that has a hol Happy Burns Night! I love a country that has a holiday for their national poet. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Here’s one of my favorite poems he wrote.

Musing On The Roaring Ocean
by Robert Burns

Musing on the roaring ocean, 
Which divides my love and me; 
Wearying heav’n in warm devotion, 
For his weal where’er he be. 

Hope and Fear’s alternate billow 
Yielding late to Nature’s law, 
Whispering spirits round my pillow, 
Talk of him that’s far awa. 

Ye whom sorrow never wounded, 
Ye who never shed a tear, 
Care-untroubled, joy-surrounded, 
Gaudy day to you is dear. 

Gentle night, do thou befriend me, 
Downy sleep, the curtain draw; 
Spirits kind, again attend me, 
Talk of him that’s far awa!
