Lounge day

Sleeping in is so glorious and I will miss it dearly on July 13th (or 20th, not sure yet) when I start my job as a real life person and no longer have time to sleep in. Boo. But back to sleeping in…we did so until about 10 or 10:30 and went up to the upstairs lounge where we had free breakfast on the outdoor terrace and enjoyed the view of Sorrento. Wonderful. Then Mum and Dad went to work out, and I went to work on my tan. Equally as difficult, as you all know. There is a separate pool on the 7th floor we get to use and it’s great…there’s no kids and we get free drinks and snacks all day long. So awesome. Eventually the parentals joined me in the sun and we enjoyed the day! Early evening brought some clouds in, and we moved under the covered terrace to snack and play Canasta…very fun, and need I mention that Dad won. Eventually we figured we should get ready and head to dinner! So we cleaned ourselves up around 7:30 and headed into town to hit up a guidebook recommendation, Pizzeria Giardiniello. I had an enormous calzone made for 5 people, Mum had delicious spinach ravioli, and Dad had pasta fagioli and cannelloni with a wonderful mix of meat inside. Everything was so good, and for such a reasonable price too! I love these small non-touristy places because no one speaks English and they are so friendly and happy to have you there, regardless of whether you can communicate or not.

So that was our day! After dinner we walked around a little bit in town and then came back to read and relax in our rooms…quite uneventful but absolutely delightful. Tomorrow we head south over the mountain to explore a little of the Amalfi coast!
