Walking to Minori

On the way to Minori

Follow nine hundred steps down the mountain side from Ravello to Minori, a small seaside town. Down went Claire, Joanne and Richard step after step leading from one beautiful vista to another .

Jackets and sweatshirts were in order under a heavy sky. Upon the beach, Claire and Joanne cast off their shoes to test the cold Gulf of Solarno while hunting sea glass.

Our bus from Minori challenged on-coming traffic at every hairpin turn on the cliff hugging coast road to Amalfi. Someone must back down to allow the other to make the turn! Arriving Amalfi, we toured the cathedral before meeting Al, Mary and Marie for lunch. Another bus wound its way up to Ravello with all us aboard.


In the evening wedding guests crowded in a small restaurant for salad, pizza and many, many bottles of red wine courtesy of the groom's parents. I videoed Andrew, the groom, as I told him it wasn't to late to back out. He replied “How could I leave this woman!” It was meant to be a statement not a question. Wedding tomorrow.
