We are in Italy

We arrived in Praiano on the Amalfi Coast three days ago and we are in love. We are staying in a Hotel half way up the cliff with magnificant views to the bay of Naples and the other buildings on the side of the cliff. I have taken 150 photos as at lunch time yesterday. Some will end up here. J and I enjoyed local olives, cherry toms, local cheese, red wine and proscuto on our balcony last night and we are in heaven. The kids are enjoying the pool twice a day. The food here is delicious and very reasonable. Yesterday we paddled in the mediteranean and meandered the streets of Positano. I did not buy any sandles as I was hoping to do, however it was still a wonderful day. There is a small bus that stops right outside the hotel and will take you to Positano or Amalfi or the beach - beaches here are pebble and grey sand and yesterday part of the beach was blocked off and you could pay to have a deck chair. Even the sea in front of that part of the beach was blocked off for paying customers. We plan today to go down to Praiano and the local beach, as well as check out the local Chiesa that chimes every quarter hour.
