sdandrea1 Typhoon Oh THAT should be a wild bunch...๐..."hey, slow down there cowboy, that's your second water today". Nice fun folks, but we're all toeing the line......Reverend Fisher is with us.
johnnydoom sdandrea1 Reverend Fisher is with us. Does this mean yโall arenโt giving a boost to the local wine economy?๐ท
KCee Sounds like a great trip! I haven't been since honeymoon 26 years ago. I thought some of the food was great, but you had to go off the beaten path for it. I remember some great meals, but away from the tourist areas and the restaurants looked like dumps from the outside, but nice and quaint inside. In the popular touristy areas, the food was just ok.
sdandrea1 Visited Solerno, the island of Capri and Positano today. Food was awesome! These coastal towns are built on cliffs. It's pretty amazing how they constructed everything on these winding steep roads. They are 2-lane roads barely wide enough for 2 cars to pass and these tour buses negotiate them like it's nothing. The motorcycles pass all the traffic on the shoulders and on the oncoming lanes or just on the stripes that separate the lanes. They are fucking nuts!
ode sdandrea1 ain't that the truth, we were on a bus and it felt like we could have went tumbling down the cliff at any moment......the boats look like the end of a thumb tack you are up so high. Did you get up to AnaCapri? I only wish I had the balls to go on those little cable cars, but I could not bring myself to do it!
KCee sdandrea1 Visited Solerno, the island of Capri and Positano today. Did you go swimming or take a boat in the caves under Capri?
Rickochet sdandrea1 They are 2-lane roads barely wide enough for 2 cars to pass and these tour buses negotiate them like it's nothing. The bus drivers are amazing. I was on a huge Mercedes tour bus in Paris in crazy traffic and the he drove it like he was a courier on a bicycle. Enjoy Steve. ๐
ode sdandrea1 sweet, enjoy the great scenery, food, and culture. I went in ~ 2001 and loved it. Venice, Florence, Siena, then Amalfi Coast (Sorrento, Pompei, Capri) up to Naples and ended in Rome.
sdandrea1 ode Did you get up to AnaCapri? I only wish I had the balls to go on those little cable cars, but I could not bring myself to do it! Yes!!
sdandrea1 KCee Did you go swimming or take a boat in the caves under Capri? No time, we only had half a day and then onto Positrana.๐
KCee sdandrea1 No time, we only had half a day and then onto Positrana.๐ Well you can't do and see everything. We were there for almost 2 weeks and I'd still love to go back. We spent a day on Capri, but I didn't see as much of the coast as I would have liked. Enjoy!!
KCee Rickochet The bus drivers are amazing. I was on a huge Mercedes tour bus in Paris in crazy traffic and the he drove it like he was a courier on a bicycle I remember being on a tour bus in Rome heading from airport to hotel. Driver was headed down street that the hotel was on; cars were parked 2 and 3 deep and I thought that there is NO way this bus fits. Driver only took off maybe 6-7 mirrors on his way down the street, but left no scrapes or dents as far as I could tell....it was impressive!
