The Coast with the Most!

After Rome, we hoped on the train and headed south to the town of Sorrento which is right at the start of the most beautiful stretch of the Amalfi Coast. On our way down, we made one stop in the town of Pompei where we saw Mt. Vesuvius (the volcano that erupted and preserved the town of Pompei back in the day). It was pretty cool!!

Once in Sorrento, thanks to Justin's traveling he did for work early on in our marriage, we were able to stay at a sweet Hilton Resort overlooking Sorrento and the Mediterranean Sea for FREE! It was awesome and we took full advantage! We spent one whole day just hanging out at the cool pool.

Another day, we rented a scooter and lived on the edge as we drove the hairpin turned road down to the town of Amalfi through Positano on the Amalfi Coast. It was so awesome (as it always is) getting to see some of the places that we've always heard about or seen in movies. We loved the Amalfi Coast and tried to think of reasons why we'd HAVE to get back there someday......like maybe we have to fly through here on our way to Nepal or something :-). It's totally on the way, right?


We had great weather and an absolutely fabulous time!! Check out some of the gorgeous sights that we were so blessed to see by clicking HERE.
