On the morning of the 13th day we left Sorrento for a drive around the Sorrentine Peninsula. You can see our caravan above and a section of the winding, cliffside road that we drove. This drive from Sorrento to Positano then Salerno is very narrow, very busy, and very stressful to drive on. There are tour buses, motorcycles, and lots of cars on a road that is barely wide enough for two cars to pass. While the views were spectacular, as I driver I needed a change of underwear by the time we reached the autostrade.
We stopped in the morning for a couple of hours in Positano. Positano is a former fishing town that clings to the side of a cliff on the Amalfi coast. The houses are painted bright colors and there is a gold-domed church with some Moorish influence. We parked the cars near the top of the cliff and walked down to the ocean. There was lots of grumbling from our family group about having to climb all the way back up to the car. Happily, we found a public bus that took up back up from the beach and the city center to the lot where we left our cars.
