And for the rest of Sorrento!



This picture was taken from the balcony of our room. To the right is Sorrento.

The hotel pool sat "ON TOP" of the hotel The deck chairs could be turned around to face the Mediterranean. Naples is straight across the bay at the base of the mountain. At night the twinkling lights were magical.
Another view from the resturant terrace looking into Sorrento.





Looking straight down from our balcony. This sailing ship sailed into port late in the afternoon. It is hard to put into perspective the size of the ship, but it was huge!! We saw people disembark later that night to shop or eat dinner in Sorrento.We saw the ship again the next day at Capri. Nice way to tour the Italian coastline isn't it?

We loved the balcony off our hotel rooms. We spent alot of time hanging out here and ended taking alot of pictures. The background was beautiful!
Giving me his "Zoolander" pose.

I love this picture mainly because of the clown in the background.
I will never tell you what I just whispered into his ear!!
One of my favorite pictures of Jeff and Alex. Wow!!
Jeff, Alex, Lindsay, and Kevin. Lindsay is a friend of Kevin's from ORU. She was alot of fun and we wished she could have spent more time with us!
One night before we went out the sunset had some amazing color. I took a dozen pictures trying to capture the color. The pictures don't do it justice. I guess this is one of those times they say, "you just had to be there!"






We had two great nights strolling around Sorrento!! The town has an unspoiled old quarter, a lively main shopping street, and a spectacular cliffside setting. We found a viewing spot our first night and could have spent all night gazing out over the Mediterranean. The lights of Naples twinkled across the bay. A few ships with lights sailed sedately back and forth. The smells of the resturants, the flowers, and the sea mixed together to make it all a magical spot.

The next pictures are taken at dinner and walking through the small streets. I could have posted all of them, but I will show controll and only post a few.

Jeff and Alex broke out into dance one time.
