Positano

This is the beach part of our vacation. We drove from Orvieto to Naples to then get on the subway to go to Sorrento were we picked up a bus and drove along the Almafi Coast to get to Positano...one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen in my whole life.

There wasn't a ton to do here...which was perfect! We had a wonderful balcony with an amazing view, I am sure you can guess what we did out there- breakfast, cards, reading, talking, picnic dinners, listened to music rise from the town square. We spent our days on the beach- there were hundreds of jellyfish in the water so we didn't get into the water much (totally stunk!), found some fun restaurants overlooking the water, we bought fresh cheese and bread...and of course wine (we were in ITALY guys...come on!) at the store for our meals on our balcony.

My favorite thing we did here was take a boat trip (small boat with 12 people on it) and went along the Almalfi Coast. We were able to swim a few times and the water felt amazing! We stopped at a kissing bridge were they made us kiss and take our picture;), we spent a few hours in Almalfi as well (Positano was much nicer)and had some pizza and gelato. Have I mentioned that we ate gelato at least once a day?


These three are all on our porch. During breakfast we heard the school children across the way singing in choir. It was so funny bc they were having trouble with one part and had to sing it about 15 times! So fun...
