June
It is becoming a blur. i can't recall where i was yesterday or how long we were in that other place before...
we arrived "somewhere" today and it wasn't until the sunset that i realized i did not know where we were. Actually, it was when the chef asked if this was an island or the mainland. I went to the charts and looked around, confused: what do you look for to find out where you are? i finally asked the captain for the town name, he didn't know, just the marina name- but that is something to go on! We are on the Island of Ishia, off the Amalfi coast. The town name is still being debated. but it is lovely! yesterday we were in Gaeta (i thought an island, but after much hiking i found it was an ithmus), not found in any tourist book.
Ishia is great!!! part of "The Talentted Mr. Ripley" was filmed here, and i found the castle i want to live in. Currently Italy is using my future home as a tourist sight, 10 euro to visit (not a bad idea). so many photos i have to upload! i spent my day off lounging around the mineral baths. it was a park\resort with a dozen mineral pools of varing temperatures, access to the ocean, cafes, massage, and lots of older over weight itlians. An interesting culteral differnce: there is no weight or age limit for string bikinis or speedos. photos will follow!
days later... where am i?
