Italian road trip
Italian road trip in march 2000 commenced after a few days in Florence & San Gimignano with my beautiful Italian friend Barbara Manelli, I left with 2 American friends Paul & Dan on a road trip south through Naples, the Amalfi coast & all the way to Reggio at the toe of the boot.
Spanish Steps in Rome
That’s Paul in the middle & Dan aka Scooter Boy on the right. Can’t remember the name of the guy on the left.
Here we are in Naples
The locals are playing a game on the beach.
Naples harbour
Dan & I checking out the boats.
More boats in Naples.
Getting the boat ready for some fishing.
Next stop Pompeii
Pompeii was buried under meters of ash and pumice after the catastrophic eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 A.D.
Fairly gruesome
I guess they never really stood a chance.
Farewell to the streets of Pompeii
One of the most interesting places I have ever visited.
Sorrento
David, Paul & Dan.
The gorge
The gorge down to Marina Piccola from PiazzaTasso.
Next stop the Isle of Capri
Took a bus trip around the island, had lunch & checked out the Blue Grotto.
Capri
A narrow Capri street.
Capri was very interesting indeed.
Our guide to the Blue Grotto
It was nice without blowing your socks off. 🙂
Positano
The jewel in the crown on the Amalfi coast.
Fruit anyone?

Lunch in Positano
A very quaint village clinging onto the side of a mountain, lots of stairs to climb.
Love on the rocks
Can’t be too comfortable. 🙂
