The Amalfi Coast

We stayed in Amalfi for a couple of days and used it as a base for exploring the coastline. It was such a pretty village. Very friendly and quaint.

The coastline is gorgeous. Lots of green hills with houses and buildings jutting out from them. It was a less touristy, and smarter Cinque Terre. Utterly charming and beautiful.

As always in Italy, there were impressive cathedrals and churches too. How everything balanced and fitted together was remarkable.

The roads were twisty and challenging but undeniably beautiful. It was fantastic to have the car and to be able to get to drive around and explore other villages. The sea was so clear and pretty. I love being next to the coast. We were amazed at how hot it was too, definitely a few degrees warmer than Milano.

It was such a lovely way to end the half term and our lil girly holiday. It was Shona's birthday on the last night so we went out for a little meal to celebrate...including Tiramisu. I wasn't fussed on it a couple of months ago, but it is now one of my favourites!
