On our way out we learned that the part of the subway was closed. We didn’t plan on getting to far away so we didn’t really pay much noticed to it. Tina found a little pizzeria in her guidebook that was near the hotel. It has been opened since 1904 and was down a side […]
To the Train!
Gaitano picked us up to take us to the train station in Naples to head to Roam. The train station is just like an airport except it’s not air-conditioned; it was also Sunday so not many of the shops were open. The tobacco stand was and we were both in need of a little caffeine […]
Captain Mario
We can not really call the boat ride back to Sorrento a “mini-cruise” it didn’t take long for us to realize that our “cruise ship” was turned into a water taxi for anyone who wanted to by a ticket and get back to Sorrento. Luckily we got on board, but we did not get our […]
Mini-Cruise Along the Coast
We wanted to explore the Amalfi Coast line and decided to again take Gaitano’s recommendation of getting there by boat. He said the bus drivers are crazy and after our experience in Capri we knew he had to be right. We were told that the ticket booth opened at 9:00 and the cruise started at […]
When the Moon Hits the Sky Like a Big Pizza Pie. . .That’s A’ Moure
We have had some many wonderful meals in Sorrento that we were quite excited (and sad at the same time) for dinner. The front desk suggested two places, one with an outside terrace and so-so food and one that was inside, had live music and exceptional food. We went for the music and the food […]
Thank-You Gaitano
When we first got to Capri we asked Gaitano some of his favorite restaurants. Tina told him we like authentic regional food and to eat where the locals eat. There were several tables of locals (we think, as they were kiss a kiss a with the guitar player) and a line. According to Tina’s Law […]
Definitely Yacht People
Pepe highly recommended taking the boat tour around Capri instead of going to see the Blue Grotto. Tina really wanted to see the Blue Grotto as it was one of the Top Ten from her guidebook, but she conceded when she heard that the boat tour would take us to the Green Grotto, which was […]
Capri Town is “Not Normal”
The ride down was just as crazy and hair raising as the way up. Jared has a habit of falling asleep in cars, buses, boats, etc. really anything that is moving, and he couldn’t even fall asleep on this ride. Now Pepe warned us that Capri Town was “different” from Anacapri. He described the shops […]
What a View!
We arrived at the top of Ana Capri with no physical harm done to our bodies, psychological harm, now that is a different story and one that would take far to long to get to the bottom of, so we wont go there. At the top Pepe gave us more great information on what we […]
Pepe!
We walk down the winding stairs to our tour location; from here we are directed to our tour guide Pepe. We find that we are early; we thought we had to be there by 8:00, and it is quarter to (like we said always 15 minutes ahead of schedule) and the tour will not depart […]
