Fishermen on the Amalfi Coast - Italy
The Amalfi Coast, made famous in recent years by the film “The Talented Mr. Ripley”, simply stuns. The Mediterranean Sea mesmerizes with its blueness, the bougainvilleas are striking, and the houses – engineering marvels themselves – are tucked right into the cliffside. Walks are not for the faint of heart – stairways are small and steep and alleys are tight. The roads - a challenge to navigate even for Europe’s best drivers – provide an amusement-park style experience. With blind curves and barreling buses sounding their air horns, the possibility of careering down a cliff is possible at any turn. Stay on foot!
Our arrival in late September coincides with the end of the tourist season, so the town had a sleepy feel to it as locals go about their normal routines.
