Our supposed second day in Positano was spent mostly in Capri. I initially was not sure whether I wanted to go see this island, despite it being listed in the book “1,000 Places to See Before You Die”, since I’d…
From Rome, we left bright and early for our 4-hour drive to the coast, and took a cab to the Termini railway station to pick up our rental car. On the way there, our cabbie entertained (and frightened) us with…
