Arriving Amalfi
Finally we arrived in Amalfi
at 18:30 and waited to berth till 20:00. The port was full so we refuelled
and we berthed after asking permission from the Capitaneria di Porto who let us
anchor and stern berth by the hydrofoil pier, as long as we would be leaving by
07:00 next morning. Amalfi with its charming
village just few kilometers east of Positano tucked between the mountains and
overlooking the glittering bay of Salerno. We went walking to see the this
picturesque town with pavement cafes and quaint shops abound along the narrow
stepped streets. Jack Lemon came back to our memories in the movie
''Avanti'', walking there I could think only of the servant and the man
preparing the documents for the funeral with his seal stamps in his
raincoat on his Vespa. Lots of restaurants around with
traditional dishes where it was Michalis turn to choose one. Great
dinner! We plan to visit 27th July Agropolis and the temple in Paestum so we have to wake up early and take advantage of some fresh breeze seen in the forecast.
