Positano update - the rest of the story.


We've had three wonderful excursions this week.
Monday - Amalfi, by ferry boat.


Tuesday - Pompeii 


Wednesday - Ravello 


both with our wonderful, handsome, young driver Vittorio!


As you can imagine
 I have many more photographs to sift through and prepare 
to share with you.


In the meantime (because you asked !) some photographs of the inside of le botticelle.

The cliff wall is a feature (!)
on the other side is the wine cellar.

Our makeshift bar -
g&t anyone?

the in room jacuzzi (!)

tiles plastered into the walls
 are a common feature in buildings along the Amalfi coast


In my previous post I shared some photographs of the latest Positano fashions.


I didn't buy a dress or skirt but I did fall for two lovely scarves, made in Positano. 
Perfect accessories for a summery outfit 
which will add a little Italian style to my look.


ciao!

    *sigh* How beautiful!
    It looks like it must have been a wonderful holiday - all the right ingredients, even with a little rain to help you to appreciate the sunshine/
    I love the scarves - wonderful souvenirs.

    OH, Maggie -- it's stunning! And having Vittorio at hand is just as good eye candy as the scenery and lovely room!
