La Masseria-

 So this was probably one of my favorite days in Sorrento and the day I wanted to plan more than anything.  I had wanted to go to a farm from day one.  This farm is a place that has lemons, olives, animals and they served us lunch.  It was the most exciting day for me.   We started out with breakfast at Fauno Bar.  But we learned to tell them, just the eggs and croissant and cappuccino.  Not all the other stuff.  We then just walked around Sorrento watching the city open waiting for the bus for the farm.  We caught the bus and were off for my most exciting day,   Eugenio showed us his family farm.  His brother, mother, father and his girlfriend all work there.  They process the lemons, olives, milk the animals.  they send the animals places for a neighbor to process.  They make their own wine.   We got the see their animals. Ronnie loved feeding the animals. The ladder in the back was specially bui...

Capri

 Today we woke up and we were headed on a boat to Capri.  It is really a magical place.  Very different from Sorrento.  We were waiting for the bus to the port for the boat by some lovely lemon trees in Sorrento.  The lemon trees are just gorgeous and everywhere   We enjoyed the beautiful ride over We enjoyed a light typical Italian Breakfast of cappuccino and pistachio cream croissant and Ronnie played with the biggest lemon he had ever seen!!!!  We then walked around a little bit and decided that since the boat ride later would take us around the island and show us the blue grotto, instead of getting in line to try and get a boat to go into the Blue Grotta we would go to Ana Capri and take the incline.  I am so glad we did that.  OMG, I cannot even begin to describe the beauty.  We decided to take a taxi- which is really just an old car.  It only cost around 20 Euros and it was cool.  The ride up was slightly scary....
