Amalfi for Me

Next on the tourist trail, passing Sorrento, Positano on the way and we arrive by engine into Amalfi, welcomed in by Lucca and a bottle of sparkling stuff, some lemons and a bottle of limoncello.

It is a lovely spot enclosed by high vertiginous mountains and filled with people in shorts and tee shirts. It is very busy though and attracts very big private yachts and cruisers. Personally I felt it lacked soul but it was nice to see it and interesting to walk around. Nice anchovies though.

Where is the sailing chat you cry? Well unfortunately there has been no wind since we arrived and we have been forced to join the cavalcade of motor boats cruising the Amalfi Coast. It is like a motoway of boats going to and fro and with some questionable sea skills in evidence.

However the view of the coast is lovely with the terraces of houses and lemon groves going down to the sea.
