What did we do? Well, there was a lot of laying around doing nothing for a start, but there aren't any photos of that, because I was doing nothing!
We shopped. A lot.
Especially here, where D'arcy needed to be forcibly removed. They custom make sandals and we got quite carried away, if you look really hard, you can see me, I'm the white blob, squatting down near the door. I was helping D'arcy with yet another pair of shoes. David wore a hole in the concrete seat on the other side of the road waiting for us, which is where he snapped this photo from. We also bought a number of outfits for D'arcy in some of the local Positanese stores, and some gorgeous paintings of the area by local artists.
We ate. A lot.
Mostly at the little restaurants that are right on the beach. I'm not much of a photographer of meals, so there's not a lot of evidence of it, but I have these photos. Not our favourite place to eat, but it was right on the beach.
Doesn't D'arcy look pleased I'm snapping away at her again?
We also hung out at the beach and swam.
Have a look at this gorgeous little Italian boy and his Nonno fishing on a pier! How gorgeous :) This was at a beach called Il Fornillo, just a short walk from Positano.
We took a trip on a ferry to Amalfi.

We took a bus from Amalfi to Ravello.
We even spent one amazing day on a private motor yacht, sailing around the Amalfi Coast! Where we jumped off the back of the boat and swam, entered into a cave, or grotto and saw the shining, blue water, ate lunch at a restaurant you can only get to by boat, and sailed around a group of island, once owned by Rudolf Nureyev! It was amazing.

OMG, I now officially really jealous of your trip - I still don't understand how you never asked me to be a travel buddy (I would have been good!) How close to heaven is Positano and look at you guys - private boats, restaurants only accessed via the ocean - you are living the life of the rich and shameless (love it!!). Sounds like you are having a perfectly lovely time and David looks about exactly the same so that would suggest that while you are eating like crazy you must also be doing lots of walking - D'arcy looks modelish in every photo (Fran you are suspiciously absent from most photo's - yes I know it's because you are taking them but I think it's time to pass the camera around). Eagerly awainting more updates. Love your shut-in mate back in Aus, LJ
