It's a little humid today on the Amalfi Coast. The windows of the house are covered with condensation on the inside and rain on the outside. I noticed this little snail making its way across the outside of the living room window. Yep, it's definitely a little humid today. Happy (humid) Friday! ...
Photo Friday: Winter Reflections
When the sun shines, this is just about one of my favorite times of the year on the Amalfi Coast. Walking along the port in Amalfi, the air is cool and clear and the late afternoon light is magical. It's the time of year to take a deep breath and get lost in the colors and light dancing across the ...
Sunday Mornings in Amalfi
I love Sunday mornings in Amalfi, especially this time of year when the sun warms the promenades along the sea and it seems like the whole town is out for a passeggiata. There's something special about Sunday mornings that you can feel walking through Amalfi. People are dressed just a little nicer ...
Photo Friday: Autumn in Anacapri
Despite all the recent rain and windstorms, it's been a beautiful autumn this year on the Amalfi Coast. On a nice day at the end of October, I went to Capri on one of the last days the boats were running from Amalfi to Capri. (Just a couple of days before the rough seas!) The autumn colors were ...
Autumn at the Villa Cimbrone in Ravello
It's been a beautiful autumn on the Amalfi Coast. As I look out the windows at the bright blue sky and the autumn colors dotting the mountainsides in shades of reds, yellows and oranges, I'm inspired to share some photos I took in October at the Villa Cimbrone in Ravello. While the weather can be ...
Rough Seas in Amalfi
November 1st arrived this year with maltempo, or bad weather, all across Italy. We woke up the morning of the first to a strong, warm scirocco wind blowing from the southeast. The wind brought with it a sudden spike in temperature and a very rough sea in Amalfi. The waves were crashing on the Marina ...
Photo Friday: Autumn on the Amalfi Coast
Autumn has started to arrive on the Amalfi Coast, and everywhere you turn there are pretty signs like this vine climbing up a wall. I snapped this photo while out taking a walk last week in Scala. I loved the contrast between the strong reds, the blue sky and the mountain peaks in the distance. A ...
Photo Friday: Sailing into Autumn
Even though the weather has turned rainy and cool, especially up in the mountains of the Amalfi Coast, there's still a touch of summer in the air in Amalfi. One morning this week I was out for a walk in the warm sun and I snapped this photo of a sailboat. For a moment it felt just like summer! Even ...
Oleander blooms on the Amalfi Coast
I love it when the oleander comes into full bloom on the Amalfi Coast. Many towns have planted oleander (Oleandro in Italian) along the side of the road or around town, and it grows very happily in the Mediterranean sun. I noticed the other day this beautiful oleander just outside the ...
Out & About: Fishing for Spring
By all accounts this has been a bizarre spring. In fact, with all the rain and gloomy days I think I missed it completely. Just this past week the sun has come out bright and strong and I can feel the warm days of summer just around the corner. In the meantime, I’m enjoying this little bit of spring ...
Touching the Clouds
We’ve been having typical spring weather on the Amalfi Coast for the past week – a rather indecisive and confusing mix of rain and sun. I can’t decide whether it’s worth the risk to put the laundry outside, as one moment it’s gloriously sunny and perfect and the next it’s pouring. ...
Spring Blossoms on the Amalfi Coast
This week has been the classic mix of the rain showers and glorious sunshine that herald the arrival of Spring. This is the time of year I don’t mind not having a car or scooter as walking becomes even more pleasurable an experience than usual here. Over the past few weeks I’ve made one of my ...
