Amalfi

Breakfast at this hotel is the best so far. We then caught the bus that takes you along the Amalfi coast past Positano to Amalfi and it is suppose tobe the most scenic bus trip in the world. It is also the scariest with narrow roads clinging to the cliffs edge with drop dead(literally) gorgeous views to the ocean way below.the trip took 1hr and a half and unfortunately all seats were taken when we got on so we had to stand but this did enable us to see the view quite well. We dismounted at amalfi and walked down to the beach .Most of it was private beaches but a small section about 5 metres wide was for public access and we had a swim.Very cold compared to aussie but the kids and I went in while Jim minded our bags.
We then walked up into the square and wandered around the shops .Carlie bought a white dress and we got some lemon chocolate.Lemons are BIG here literally.We then caught a boat back to Sorrento where we are staying.The boat took 2 hours and most Italians seem to think nothing of sitting out in the decks chairs in full sun for the whole trip tanning.The sun must not be as intense here?? We arrived at Sorrento with 10 minutes to catch the earlier shuttle bus back to the hotel and when we saw the waterfront at Sorrento we realised we would not make it as it was a huge cliff we needed to scale before reaching the bus meeting point. We took our time and caught the next bus an hour later. In the evening we had dinner at the hotel, the food is the best we have had so far.
