Isle of Capri




   Finally we arrive at our hotel in sorrento at about 5.30 and this is the view from our room, we are right on the cliff face looking into the Mediterranean, we even have our own balcony!


   We are there to see our first sunset, beautiful


   Looking to the right from our room, we have time for a break and then we dine in at the restaurant tonight wher we we served pasta as entree, chicken in a sauce with beautiful vegetables for main and dessert. 


   After breakfast we meet at 8 to make our way to the ferry and meet our local tour guide Willy and        cross to the isle of Capri, it's about 20 minutes. On arrival we then get on another boat so we can cruise around the island

    Just leaving the port 



   This statue was put here as a symbol for the children



   A cave 


   Bit blurred, but this is coral 



These are called the donkey ears


   This stellictite apparently resembles the madonna




    Mol certain times of the day toucan see through the rocks at the base, tiny little blue light


   Our boat came through the centre opening here






   When we got back from the island cruise, which took about an hour, we caught a cable car to the top of the island, it was very steep. There are beautiful exclusive shops up here, quite beautiful winding little streets.

    This building has been built around this tree



   A chapel 


   The gardens are really magnificent 




   Views from the top




   The gardens at the top donated many years ago by a family
