Italy the final chapter.

This by far was my favourite day of the trip, we didn't really do much of anything but it was the scenery that was absolutely breath taking. The photos don't even do the Amalfi coast any justice.

We left Sorento and started driving up the gorgeous Mediterranean coast and stopped in a gorgeous little town. Positano where we were able to get some Amalfi pottery. I picked up a cute little dish which I will use to hold little treasures. The people of Positano are also known to have the best butts in all of Italy. Their glorious town is built on the side of a very steep cliff/hill and there are steep stairs and walkways everywhere. Hence the bootyliciousness! We were also able to have some amazingly fresh fruit, I had a peach the size of a softball and it was AMAZING!

Our next stop was the town of Amalfi where we had some excellent pastries and were able to explore this little gem of a town. The town of Amalfi is what the Amalfi coast is named after, also they make a type of paper that the pope uses. I figured if it was good enough for the pope then why not me and I picked up some beautiful note cards and paper.

We headed onto Ravello. One word. AMAZING!

From the views, the food and the general vibe of the whole of southern Italy it is a trip that I won't soon forget and I can't wait to go back! I definitely fell in love with Italy and I can't wait to book my next ticket back and share this place that I love with someone else that I love!
