Capri Sunday

We had the hotel's nice breakfast, and Margaret was slow in finally getting up. We had the appropriate Insalata Caprese at the hotel. We took the walk to Piazza Vittoria in Anacapri There I had in mind to take the chairlift up Monte Solaro at the top of the island. We boarded it with some terror on my part, but we got to the top and had great views of the island and across the bay to the Sorrento peninsula.

We got back to the hotel, where we had drinks before dining at Il Cucciolo, a seafood specialty restaurant where the hotel arranges a shuttle bus; the ride calls for impressive maneuvers on the narrow sloping two-way streets. It was a nice meal, with the ride coordinated with two other hotel guests who went, and we had a great view of the sunset and the lights coming on over, I think, the Sorrento-Amalfi coastal area.
