We went to Italy last month, and it was one of the best
vacations we ever had! I will start off with the first place we
stayed: Positano. We rented this lovely apartment
from www.vrbo.com called Villa Fior di Limone. We
had the best view from our balcony. I would make tea
every morning, and just sit out there and enjoy the
boats on the water, or the village below. At night, we
could hear music from one of the restaurants. One
night we even heard a party boat in the water. They
were blasting dance music, and I am sure the whole
town heard it! Positano is a vertical city, with many
levels. One day my husband decided to count the steps
up to our apartment from the main street level (the beach is
a few levels down), and there were 443 steps! I can walk
on flat ground forever, but I was never good with uphill, or steps,
so it was a little challenge for me. But the view was so worth it!
If you go to the Amalfi coast, I recommend this place, or at least
this town!
