Campania

Once we’d checked into the hotel, it was LUNCH TIME. Amalfi seems more traditional than Florence in that real restaurants definitely close between lunch and dinner. We wandered about seven minutes down the road from our hotel into the town of Amalfi and had lunch at a total hole in the wall, which was absolutely great. Pizza, fritto misto and spaghetti limone. We came back to the hotel and got dressed for dinner (after ordering a couple of espresso martinis, of course). We took a cab into Positano, about 25 minutes and had plenty of time to shop around before we had to get to dinner. While we were walking, I spotted one of my favorite Bravolebrities, Paige Desorbo. Idk what came over me, but I was just like, “Paige? Is that you?”, as if we were old friends 😹. She was so tiny and cute and nice and we snapped a pic. She’s on vacation with her parents, but she and Craig are still together, in case you were wondering. Following this, we wound our way around the town before arriving at La Sponda at the hotel Le Sirenuse. This was probably the fanciest meal we’ve had/will have. Highlights included the tomato salad with tomatoes five ways and the veal entrecôte. Pardon the flash photography, it was sooo dark. The service was impeccable and the view was beyond. We split a cab home with another couple who are also staying at our hotel and hit the hay!Read more
