Naples
to Sorrento
Started
off this morning with breakfast being delivered to our room at 8AM.
Nothing fancy but it did the trick to get us going for the day.
Our
bus leaves at 11:45 so decided to take a walk to make sure we knew
where we were going, less than a 10 minute walk to the bus station,
even quicker when we cut through the train station.
Back
towards the B&B and decided to go for a short walk. A bit of
rain in the air, but nothing terrible. Back to the apartment to get
our suitcases as we had to be checked out by 11AM. Discovered that
you must have a navy shower or you run out of hot water, brrrr.
Back
to the bus stop, we would have paid less for our tickets to Sorrento
than the 5Euro that it cost us per person to get from the airport to
our hotel by bus. We did pay an extra 4 Euro to get the front seats,
so it turned out to be just under 9 Euro per person for the bus trip,
Flexibus comes through again, we have used them a few times in Europe
now.
A
little excitement getting on the bus, there were 3 Asian woman
travelling together, we think a grandma and 2 grandchildren, that
were women not children. Anyway Grandma had her arms full and fell
getting on the bus. We think she hurt herself quite badly. One of
the grand-kids piggy backed her on to the bus. When they were
getting on we showed her we had some Tylenol if she needed some. She
came back and took 2 from us, then returned the bottle and wanted to
give us 5 Euro, then we made her take a couple more from the bottle
for later and would not accept the 5 Euro. I wondered if we would
ever take pills from a stranger, then remembered I happily took some
pills from a Aussie in Atacama when I was suffering from the altitude
sickness.
Arrived
in Sorrento and a little difficulty finding our apartment, and the
AIRBNB person was not answering whatsapp. Did finally hook up but he
will not be getting 5 stars for check in ease.
A
walk around town, checked out where Joey booked her shuttle from to
see where she is getting dropped off and we are off for a few
groceries.
Back
to the apartment and so far Andre has spilled coffee, then red wine.
Will add more paper towels to our shopping list.
Small supper at the apartment and we are outside at 8:15 to wait for Joey. Not long wait and she shows up in a van by herself, yeah, let the fun begin!
Catching up on her travel adventure and we call it a night. Hoping the wind lets up tomorrow and tomorrow we can get some exploring done without being blowing away!
