Capri!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We went to the coast last weekend it was amazing - sorry for the lateness!

Yes many !!!!!! because it was that amazing.

First off let me tell you about my anxiety. My friends in my class warned me of the dangers of the Naples train station and one of them had been mugged there recently. We had to go to the naples train station to transfer to a sketchy train to Sorrento where we were staying. So here I am with all my bags in front of me wallet in my underwear, credit card and money in my shoes running through the train station so no one mugged me. Yes I am fucking crazy.

ANYWAY. We left on Thursday and after 5 hours of traveling we checked into the AMAZING Hilton Sorrento Palace. It was the first time I used my Hilton Team Member Discount too wooo! The hotel was unbelievable with a view of Mt Vesuvius from the outdoor terrace where we had dinner and drinks.









We went to bed knowing that Friday would be exhausting and it was well worth it. We woke up and got one of the first Ferry Boats to Capri. Even though John was literally GREEN when we got off we hopped on yet another boat to get to the Blue Grotto. 



After the Blue Grotto we had a boat tour around the island and it was magnificent. I cant even begin to describe how in love I am with Capri. The water is completely BLUE and you can see the bottom which is eerie and amazing at the same time.










After the boat tour we decided to settle down and chillax by the beach. By beach I mean rock beaches because Capri is a limestone beach town.... not the most comfortable but who could complain when it looks like this?! 








After the beach we took a terrifying bus ride up the roads that were so windy and tight it looked like we were going to just roll into the ocean. Insane.

When we got to our destination we went to the chair lift! The chair lift takes you to the highest point in Capri! The views were insane. I absolutely love this island and can not wait until we go back!







Carved our initials into the top of Capri! 



Oh! Also of course I had a Caprese salad1! nomnom
