Sorrento


Just wanted to tell you a little about one of my Amalfi Coast trip with my parents, even though it was a few weeks ago. I would have to say it is my second favorite place in line from Italy. The water is beautiful clear blue and great weather. It is a cute little town with really friendly people. We started in Sorrento and took a day trip to the Amalfi, Rafello, and Positono, which was my favorite town in the Amalfi Coast. It has millions of stairs, really old buldings, flowers everywhere, and a beautiful beach. While in Sorrento we had the best dinner at the Buffalo Inn, I had gnocchi and it was the best gnocchi I have ever had I think I will have dreams about it until I have it again! After Sorrento we took a Ferry to Capri and stayed one night there. It is a very beautiful Island, we took a boat around the entire island and of course went into the Blue Grotto. If you dont know what the Blue Grotto is it is a small cave on the island with a tiny opening you have to squeeze through on a small boat while laying down to prevent smacking your head on the rock...like my dad did! He was fine though Don't worry! Inside it is pitch black but the ocean is glowing blue...which is how it got it's name THE BLUE GROTTO! Loved this tirp, Ciao!
