When in Sorrento eat gelato
Monday we got up and I finished drying our clothes and then we packed and headed out down to Naples. It only took about 2 hours to get here but we actually are a little further south of Naples in a town called Sorrento. It,s a really cool town that,s built right into the mountain side. Around the bend is the town called Positano and there is also the isle of Capri off the coast. We stopped along the way and took pictures because it is so beathtakingly beautiful here being right on the coast. The water is so clear (but a little cold) but so tempting that you want to jump right in.Once in Sorrento we had to find our campground that we were staying at. It,s built right into the mountain and has a little beach (but it,s rocky) and the boys said that it is a nudie beach when they went down to check it out. I took a nap because I had gotten up so early to do laundy that morning. We found a great little restuarant for dinner and I had the best pizza and also got for an appitizer the procuitto ham and mozzerella with bread. Yum Yum!! Our waitress was super nice and freindly and she gave us some good info on where to go to take a tour of Capri. We ended the night we some gelatto (strawberry and coconut - my favorite) and headed to bed.
We must have been more tired than we thought because we slept in and missed taking the boat to Capri. We ended up walking around Sorrento and doing some light shopping today. We had another great lunch (lasagna and some more gelato) and just wandered around the city. We met a lady on the street that told us where to go for our trip to Capri and we decided to stay another night so we can do Capri tomorrow. We,re going back to the same restaurant for dinner tonight (for some more procuitto and mozzerella) and of course gelato!! When in Italy........

Sounds so pretty. I heard gelato is soo yummy. To bad you can't bring it home! Have fun.
I've never had gelato either. I know, Crazy right? I've had many opportunities, I've just always had other stuff instead. Have fun on your boat ride tomorrow.
Im so proud of you...I say eat gelati every meal. and when I couldn't afford a meal over there I would just eat gelati instead! I liked the peach myself. I am so jealous. I always wanted to go to positano when I was there but never made it to that coast. you lucky duck!
