Sunday on the Amalfi Coast…


I left the ship with others on various tours, and we traveled by boat from Salerno (the port) to the city of Amalfi.  In a previous trip I visited Naples and Pompeii, so I opted to visit the town of Amalfi. 

The city was beautiful.  The houses were nestled within the cliffs.  Lemons are famous for this part of Italy, and I had to try some of the lemon gelato.  The treat was so delicious on such a hot day.

Later this afternoon the ship will depart for Tunisia in Northern Africa.  

The ship docked in Salermo and folks were shuttled by boat to Amalfi.

The cathedra in Amalfi (I climbed all those stairs to visit!).
