Quick nap on the beach to snooze off the nausea of the drive from Pompeii…
Cause this is what the roads look like here:
We took a lil hike into the mountain above Amalfi on day 1. Mostly we were lost, but we found some trails eventually and it was lovely walking past all the ruins and lemon groves…
Amalfi is about lemons. So, so many lemons. Lemon everything. And lemons are harvested in February - OH YEAH. They’re fresh, and they are everywhere! Bliss.
Amalfi of course has its own big and beautiful cathedral…
Day 2 we hike the Path of the Gods, high above the Amalfi Coast…
We tried to beware of the gatto, but she won us over immediately. And we were only halfway down the longest staircase EVER as we descended into Positano. She gave us some much needed fortification, via loud purrs and soft fur, so we could continue the painful journey…
Positano is gorgeous. Not much going on in winter though, and it was rough trying to find anywhere open for pranzo. Which we needed after our hike. Finally found delicious panini on the beach before heading home via Praiano…
Gelato on our lil balcony overlooking the piazza
Next day, the Maritime History Museum. This old shipbuilding facility was built in 1059 AD when Amalfi was one, and arguably the most important, of four main ports of Italy and a major military hub.
