The Island of Capri is made of volcanic and limestone rock. It’s the limestone underneath the pristine water that reflects the sunlight to create emerald and cerulean hues that draw thousands of tourists each year. Our group spent an idyllic day wandering around the streets and encircling the island. Here are a few of my favorite shots. Which one do you like best?

Cerulean blue is my fave. Just perfect.

All lovely shots, and the food and lemons look wonderful.
I like the view of Vesuvius, as it is worth remembering what happened when that exploded! 🙂
Best wishes, Pete. x

Pompeii was impressive. Between Mt. Etna and Vesuvius, it is a volatile area…

In search of grottos reminds me of a very stormy trip to Staffa in the early ’80s. It was so rough that we could not land. Such a contrast to your calm picture

Perhaps the time of year made a difference? I hope to return and get in the water. Liquid jewels. A magical spot of the world, for sure.

I felt like I was in a movie. All a dream now. Crazy the anticipation of a trip makes working like a dog tolerable. When you are on the trip, your eyes can’t believe you are there. Then when it is over, you look at pictures and wonder if you were really there at all!

Wow! Isn’t Capri paradise on Earth, Cindy? Your pictures blew me away and caused the travel bug to itch me. How many days would you recommend staying in Capri?

Welcome, Lydia! Capri is for the rich and famous. You’d be better off staying in nearby Sorrento and visiting Capri. See what you find on VRBO or Airbnb….I could stay in Sorrento for a month. A week would be nice. We stayed at the Hotel Florida. Very nice and not too expensive–I’d go back there in a minute.

Thank you, my friend. Yes and yes! All a wonderful dream. I’m glad you picked the stroll. It is inviting. It was hot that day in the sun; the palm trees shaded and the breeze lifting up from the sea encircled us. We sat in the park bench and listened to the birds. A perfect memory.
