Plane was late leaving Paris, Mel in row 27 and I was In row 11, but all OK. Arrived into Rome late and missed our transfer, so had to hang around the airport for 3 hours for the next one. Finally arrived at our hotel and it was time to go for a short tour of Rome and dinner. Thankfully the dinner was nice, lots of pizza and wine. Another early start the next morning and off to the Vatican museum, Sistine Chapel, St. Peter's basilica. We were were lucky to get group entry and no waiting. A short stop for lunch and then to the colosseum for a tour. After going back to the hotel for a couple of hours rest, Mel and I went walking for a couple of hours around Rome and found a nice place for dinner.
Another early wake up and headed south to visit Pompeii, which is quite an amazing place. Onwards to Sorrento to our hotel which overlooks the sea and the view from our room is spectacular.
A short rest and then a trip to Positano, where we cooled our feet in the sea and then to the bar on the beach for a drink.
The weather is very hot 35deg and quite humid. After our long day it was nice to get back to our hotel for a shower and dinner. Tomorrow we are taking the ferry to The Isle of Capri, where we will take a boat cruise round the island.
Just returned from our tour. Quite a relaxed day, but very hot. I am going to go into Sorrento for a look around while Mel has a rest for a while. Staying near the hotel and to a pizzeria for dinner while the rest of the tour go on another excursion. We have had enough for the day.
