Happy Fourth of July to all of us!!! Today we arose to take the hydroboat over to the Isle of Capri. It was an extremely smooth ride. Then we immediately boarded a boat to take a tour around the island and see that it is an tall island made of limestone. There are no beaches on Capri. But lots of beautiful scenery and shopping!!!
Took the Funiculare up to the center of town and walked around the gardens donated by the Krupp family, the coffee maker people. They have sold their house and is now a hotel. Also saw the house of Sophia Loren and the hotel where the Marshall Plan was signed.
There are nine 5 star hotels here and at least that many four star hotels here too. It is the land of the beautiful people. However, they don't come out until night and we will be gone by then.
I did not get up to Anacapri which is the top part of the island to see the view.
Went back to Sorrento to do some more shopping as the prices were a lot cheaper than Capri.
Tomorrow we leave for Assisi. Hope all of you enjoyed the fireworks on the fourth back home.
