Southern Italy Part 2: Sorrento and Capri




At around 5 pm we took the train from Naples to Sorrento, and it took around an hour. Sorrento is such a great place. It feels a little like Florida and has a very safe, friendly feel about it. We stayed at a hostel about 20 minutes away from the train station. When we got there we all showered and got ready then went to a really nice place for dinner. We has an awesome time then went back and hung around in the bar in our hostel and met some cool people from London and Manchester. We stayed out pretty late then went to bed. The Next day we walked around Sorrento, and it was soooooo beautiful. Again, it was right on the coast and there were mountains and you could see Mt. Vesuvius in the distance, it was so great. We had a nice lunch and then took a ferry over to the island of Capri. Capri was even nicer the Sorrento. It kind of looked the same, but it was a little greener and the mountains were amazing. We did a whole walk around of the city, and hiked to the top part of Capri where all the designer stores are. There were so many rich stores it was crazy. We went to a lookout point and had a view of Capri and the sea that was breathtaking. After we hiked back down and went back to Sorrento, where we again had a good dinner and then hung around at a bar and just had a really great time together.
