getting on the charter to take us to
capri (correctly pronounced
CAH-
pree)
laura and me getting ready for the day's adventure
cool tile map
blue grotto. now you
feelin' me on the blunt force trauma?!?!?! refer to my
.
although i joke about the death risk, it seriously was one of the best things we did on the trip.
after watching others go in & out for about 10 minutes, we were all pretty anxious for our turn. yup, that's me in the front of the boat...there's an awkward story about that. as we approached the opening of the cave, the man began maneuvering the boat through & urgently told us, "GET DOWN! LAY DOWN!" so, i started laying down, but then found myself in a *very* compromising position and it was too late to change it. let's just say i got to know our boatman *extremely* well as he practically laid on top of me. i must have turned 50 shades of red. good thing it was cool & dark inside of the blue grotto!
the girls about to go in!!!
inside the cave. once we got in and sat back up (and i rearranged my body to a more modest position) we made a loop around the cave. it was an awesome sight. all the boatmen (there were several other boats in the cave) began serenading us with an
italian song.
we were in awe of the blue glow. it was
sooooo beautiful.
these 2 men are the chair lift operators. they insisted on having me take their picture just prior to me getting on. one of em's
antonio and i forget the other dude's name...
the chair lift. brought back memories of the ski lifts from my college days in
oregon.
the view was magnificent from the chair. so quiet and peaceful.
and what's a trip to
capri without a little shopping? on this path, it was one upscale store after the next.
making my purchase! it was *very* exciting!!!
the main square. our guide told us that paparazzi hang out here. it is quite common for
celebrities to be spotted @ one of the tables.
my lunch...it was YUMMY!
