It is a beautiful Sunday morning in Positano, which may be the one of the prettiest places I have ever seen. This morning, at breakfast on the patio of the Hotel California (figures, huh), David and I debated the beauty merits of Lerici vs. Positano with no conclusion.
However, since I am now using this laptop in an internet cafe, no wifi at the hotel, and I have lost somehow all the notes I wrote yesterday, I think I will just post a few pictures and say ciao for now.
Today is going to be a lazy day, tomorrow we take a day trip to Capri. And tonight we have a reservation at Chez Black on the beach, with a wide screen tv, to watch the Italy/Spain quartefinal match. I am trying hard to not shop, but there is not much else to do in Positano - I am content for now window shopping.

Marcia - what adventures you're having. Reading about yout time in Positano makes me wish that I would make it south of Rome sooner or later.

Marcia - love your pictures and your posts. Sounds like you are having a great, if somewhat eventful, journey. Your description of dinner at the beach had me salivating!
Continue to enjoy - and thanks for letting us join you.

Marcia, your photos look great. How is your room at the Hotel California? We stayed there way back in '01 and I hope it is as wonderful as it was then. And yes, a lemon slush sound lovely right about now!

Marcia, happy to hear about your adventures and to see the lovely weather you are having. I love seeing all the lemons and remember how good the lemon slush/granitas tasted on a hot day in Positano. A year ago exactly I saw literally mountains of garbage stacked so high that a woman was emptying her garbage out of her second floor window and it didn't have to go very far down to land at the top of the heap. What a sad situation not to mention health hazard. Can't imagine this situation continues.
