Ravello? Ravello!

Yep, on the right track

Hmmm – he only said  “buongiorno” to me… Follow me, dear. For once I won’t get us lost!

Hang on! That’s Ravello over there! From now on Jen gets to navigate!
So, after a very entertaining bus trip to Amalfi and a walk through a long tunnel to Atrani in the next cove, we made a forgettable and very hot climb up to Ravello, with an unscheduled detour to the town of Scala, finally reaching Ravello at about 2:30.

Finally – Ravello! J reckons she snapped this while they weren’t watching, but I don’t think so.  If she ever goes back, they’ll be ready…
In the following 2.5 hours we took more photos per minute that at any time in the trip so far.  The gardens and views from here were amazing.

A bus down to Amalfi, another entertaining bus trip to Positano, followed by another bus up the hill to Montepertuso got us home by about 8 pm.
