Capri


We Began the day bright and early with breakfast at 7. Then we got on the bus and headed for Sorrento to catch the water taxi to Capri.

Walking down the ramp-like road in Sorrento That leads to the waterfront. 

Sitting and waiting for the water taxi.

Heading over to board the boat.

Once we get to Capri we get on a smaller Boat That takes us on a mini-cruise to some of the sites of the island That can be best seen from sea.

The Villa Malaparte built by famous Italian writer Curzio Malaparte in 1938, Which is currently the property of Capri, and used for conferences and meetings and for important guests. 

The azure blue water.

The stunning rock formations.

The grottos, Which into our captain was very very adept at piloting the boat. 

More iconic rock formations.

Perhaps the most iconic formation, the Faraglioni.

Plenty of photo ops here!
After the boat tour we Began a walking tour of the island.


Where we found more photo ops

A final group picture (you have to admire Their consistency)!


Yet another fine dining experience lunch, cool.

Some of us found a beach! And got wet!

In the end it will be, for some of us, a tale of two shoe choices.

A chance to do something fun and cooperative while waiting for the ferry.

A chance to hear Italian dudes yelling at people to move on and make room for the ferry.
On the ferry headed back to the mainland.

Tomorrow morning we arise at 2:30 am to get to the airport in time for our flight to Frankfurt. We have an hour to make the connection there, so we hope things fall into place. As wonderful as it's been, we are all looking forward to seeing you soon!
