First Night
3 september 2019, Italië ⋅ ⛅ 27 °C
We arrived at the hotel at 3pm and decided to have a Wander around to see what there was at the hotel. We have the most amazing sea view, and although it was hazy, later in the day it cleared off to reveal Mount Versuvious in the distance. We had lunch by the pool and chilled in the room for an hour before heading into Sorrento by the shuttle bus.

We had the most gorgeous evening walking around the shops and the tiny streets. Admiring the open churches and impressive local crafts. We found a little Restaurant - Taverna Dell-800. Dad, Lucy and I had authentic pasta dishes and Mum had Veal. The food was lush and we indulged in a local white wine. For €12 per litre!!!

Walking back to the bus, we stopped off to try local Cannoli, I had pistachio and lemon and they were amazing!
Once back at the hotel we sat on the balcony watching some fireworks across the bay, absorbing all the lights seen from across the sea.

Tomorrow we are up early, and headed to Pompeii!Meer informatie

Spontaneously in Sorrento
11 april 2023, Italië ⋅ ⛅ 59 °F
We didn’t pay careful attention to the train schedule and found we would have to wait quite a while to get to Paestum, where we were planning to see some Greek ruins. Instead, we hopped on a train to the seaside town of Sorrento. It’s an interesting mix of tourists and fashion enthusiasts. We sat on a bench near what we supposed was an exclusive hotel overlooking the sea. We watched guests arriving in Mercedes and BMWs (not driving themselves, of course), and being greeted like celebrities (maybe they were!). We strolled the cliff edge overlooking the sea, and wandered narrow streets. The place is jam-packed with small lemon groves—like the size of our backyard, but everyone had them. Of course we had to try a lemonade or two from a street vendor.

It was a beautiful sunny day for our outing. Even better, we found that the ferry could get us back to Naples in less time and with more comfort than the train. The view of Vesuvius from out on the water shows just how much of the top has been blown off (probably not just from the eruption that destroyed Pompeii and Herculaneum in the 1st century).Meer informatie

Reiziger Glad you made it to Sorrento! My study abroad class stayed there one weekend, and the trip to Capri island was one of my favorite memories! It’s a beautiful place!

Island of Capri
23 september 2023, Italië ⋅ 🌙 22 °C
After breakfast in our Naples hotel at 7.30am, we boarded our cute 20 seater bus for the short journey to the Naples ferry port. From there we boarded a ferry bound for the island of Capri, despite the ominous clouds and choppy seas. We sat inside the ferry as the rain started to fall and enjoyed the ferry trip across the gulf of Naples to the Marina Grande on the eastern shores of Capri. As we were sitting on the ferry, Rob Crawford was handed a phone by an older man who sent a message using Google Translate as the man could not speak English. The message said, Would you mind speaking a little more quietly. He definitely settled down after that, so it shows he can be more quiet for a sustained period when he tries really hard. Although, it has to be said, that on the ferry from Capri to Sorrento at 4.30pm, Rob got all the passengers to sing Happy Birthday to Steve Carroll whose birthday it is today.
After arriving in Capri, we caught a little bus up the precarious road to Anacapri, which is the higher of the two villages on the island. We spent some time there but is was pouring with rain so it was not ideal weather for exploring. A beautiful place though, even in the rain.
We then caught the bus to the township of Capri and spent three hours exploring. It was a lot of fun. It truly is a magestic island. We saw famous three rocks but it was too wet and the waters too rough to go by boat to the grotto.
Capri is a place we all want to return to on a sunny day.
The evening was spent in Sorrento having dinner at a restaurant with a view over the Gulf of Naples.Meer informatie

Arrivederci Sorrento
11 oktober 2023, Italië ⋅ 🌙 21 °C
Da wir morgen dem Golf von Neapel den Rücken kehren werden, haben wir den heutigen Tag noch einmal schnorchelnd in der wunderschönen Bucht Bagni di Regina Giovanna verbracht.

Das Wasser war so klar, dass viele Fische schon ohne Schnorchel zu sehen waren, wie sie sich nahe an den Felsen tummelten.

In den tieferen Schichten hielten sich die großen Schwärme aus.
Es war ein unglaubliches Gefühl, sie dort im tiefen Wasser zu sehen, das königsblau aussah, von Sonnenstrahlen durchschienen.

Diese Bucht gehört eindeutig zu unseren Lieblingsbuchten.

Weitere Fotos davon als die, welche wir bereits vor 2 Tagen gepostet haben, gibt es nicht.

Nur noch einmal Sorrent, diesmal sogar mit Feuerwerk.

Apropos Feuerwerk:
irgendwie gibt es hier jeden Abend, an irgendeinem Platz ein kleines Feuerwerk - auch jetzt, zu diesem Zeitpunkt, an dem ich darüber schreibe.Meer informatie

Strecke machen
19 oktober 2022, Italië ⋅ 🌙 21 °C
Heute galt es in erster Linie um Rom herum zu kommen. Falls wir auf dem Rückweg noch genug Zeit haben, werden wir auch hier noch einen Stop einlegen. Da die mitreisenden heute nicht wirklich mitreißend waren, habe ich gegen Mittag entschieden noch 150km drauf zu satteln und dafür heute schon in Neapel bzw. Sorrent einzutrudeln. Den Platz habe ich schon vor längerer Zeit mit meinem Kollegen Thomas gescoutet. Er liegt auf einer Klippe mit Blick auf Sorrent und gegenüber Neapel und dem Vesuv, wenn man ihn denn sieht.Meer informatie

What a great start. We drove from Naples to Sorrento and stopped for lunch and walk the town. Had some great food finished with gelato and continued on to Positano. A beautiful drive.
Got settled in our hotel then walked the cliff road to the restaurant with an amazing evening view. This place is one of a kind!Meer informatie

Sorrento und Mozzarella
19 april 2023, Italië ⋅ ⛅ 12 °C
Der heutige Mittwoch steht als Freizeittag im Programm..aber es gibt um unserm Domizil in der Bergstadt Avellino (400 m) nicht viel interessantes zu entdecken, ob Wanderwege oder Burgen..nach Anfrage = Fehlanzeige..und das Wetter ist am Meer deutlich angenehmer. Also folgte ich dem Angebot, einen Tagesausflug nach Sorrent, der Halbinsel vor Capri am italienischen Stiefel zu unternehmen. Es wurde wieder ein schöner sonniger Tag mit bummeln in dem touristisch beliebten Ort und einem anschließenden Besuch in einem landwirtschaftlichen Betrieb oberhalb der Küstenregion. Hier gedeihen die Zitronen besonders prächtig, so dass Liköre und Marmeladen aus den Früchten von hier sehr beliebt sind..Meer informatie

Our last day 😢
7 juli 2023, Italië ⋅ ☀️ 28 °C
Today was our final full day in Italy. Good news - we all still like each other! And are even discussing possible future vacations. Bad news - tomorrow we have to fly home for roughly 18 hours (if we’re lucky, perhaps I’m a bit jaded). Good news - as much as we’ve enjoyed the trip, we are ready to be home though not for any responsibilities there.

We decided not to make any specific plans for our final day, to just take it in however the day swayed us. Despite being a bit tired and taking it easy, we still managed to walk about 14,000 steps. Our day included:

A leisurely wake up
Another delicious breakfast at the hotel
Shopping and strolling in Sorrento
Casual lunches (separate cause we weren’t hungry at the same time)
Chatting in the pool
Reading/napping/enjoying frozen drinks on the rooftop deck
Aperitivo with 4 different kinds of spritz’s (not 4 each…4 total, just to be clear) along with a fantastic cheese, meat, and nut board
Finding a restaurant with the right vibe and carbonara for dinner (for Dave and me) and something yummy for Carrie and Mike (score for Carrie’s delicious pesto)
Having fun with AI - both verbal and visual styles to summarize our trip (I’m including 2 of the AI visuals generated in the pics)
Gelato, of course
Playing a few rounds of euchre in the hotel lounge
And the least favorite part of the day, packing

All in all we spent a relaxing last day in Italy to recharge and enjoy the moment. We packed so much into this trip, hard to believe just a week ago we were in Tuscany. It seems almost like a completely different trip. As we discussed the trip today, there really wasn’t much major we’d do differently, it was so fantastic. Perhaps in a few days when we look back we’ll have more critique but for now we’re just basking in the glow of a wonderful trip.Meer informatie
