We had breakfast in the most beautiful breakfast room imaginable this morning. Photos tomorrow!
We then got the Shuttle to Ravello - village high up the mountain between Amalfi and Minori. The Villa Rufolo stands on the edge of the cliff and provides spectacular views of the coastline.
We had a late lunch in the Piazza and then got the shuttle back to Amalfi. These bus drivers are so skilled - negotiating hairpin turns on narrow streets with oncoming traffic and often only centimetres to spare between the bus, other vehicles and cliffs.
Off to the supermarket for some wine and antipasto. Then to the Hotel Floridiana's Rooftop .... (to be continued!)Read more
TravelerThink the buses are better on the knees. Know what you mean about the buses and they don't follow the speed limits. On our day trip the limit was 90 kph and that was a joke. We mainly travelled at 120 to 130 being often overtaken. The parking gets me. They must use a giant shoe horn. They even park over pedestrian crossings. Got to love it.
