We took a regional bus from Sorrento to the Amalfi Coast. It was scenic ride on a very curvy highway, similar to Highway 1 in CA. It was scary at times! By the time we stopped in Amalfi it felt great to be on terra firma. My mom and I took a different bus to the hill town of Ravello, recommended by some friends and other travelers. When we returned, Mitch was sportin' a haircut by an Amalfian barber and enjoying a gelato. We had some wine on the beach and I got my feet wet in the crystal clear but cold Mediterranean. We jumped on another bus headed to Sorrento and stopped in Positano, another charming coastal village. We would love to stay longer to explore sometime.
