Livorno, Italy
Flight with Air Canada was good. Arrived 45 minutes early.
Picked up by limo and taken to hotel.
Toured Vatican City and St. Peter's Basilica. People from all over the world and all walks of life.
Had a four hour tour with Gianluca and Juicy of the main Rome attractions.
Slept twelve hours and was awoke by hotel staff. Up in time to catc limo to ship.
One hour drive to ship.
Check in was eleven minutes. Sure beat the hours we stood in line at Canada Place for our last cruise to Alaska.
Oceania Riviera is stunning. Staff are exceptional. Food is amazing. Views have been wonderful.
First stop Sorrento. Did not sleep worrying about tour. We got off the tender and Gianluca was waiting with a sign. What a relief.
The 36 ft boat was beautiful. There were 19 of us in total. We cruised along the Sorrento coast line over to Sorrento.
At Capri we circled the island stopping to check out a number of Grottos. We stopped to swim three times and were very thankful as it was 94 degrees.
We were able to swim through a Grotto.
We were served wine beer sandwiches and fruit on the boat.
We were dropped off at Marina Grande in Capri to explore for three hours. Climbed to the top to see the amazing
Views.
We enjoyed the cold beer in frosted mugs overlooking the Barbour after the walk.
Yesterday's port was Amalfi. We took a tour to Positano. We had lunch at a restaurant 900 ft above sea level. The food is prepared from fresh produce grown onsite. Typical home Italian cooking. First course vegetables and second course four types of pasta.
Too bad we did not have more time
In Livorno today. No tours for us. Cooking class on the ship at 4:00pm. Have to run. Bye for now.
