We left sunny Positano this morning and our final destination was capannori, a small town in the Tuscany region of Italy. After a few white knuckle moments on the crazy amalfi coast road, we were cruising down the highway again! Today was a longish day, we arrived in our town around 4. Thus house is really neat, it's 150 years old! Very rustic but beautiful and the couple makes their own olive oil, as seems to be the case in this part of Italy! We are noticing each area has a unique specialty.
We decided to head into the town of Lucca which is a beautiful old town only 10 minutes away. It has a bug wall around it and has the old charm, but without the chaos of traditional Italian cities. We enjoyed a lovely dinner and a walk around. There must have been a big soccer victory as we ended up in the middle of a big celebration. I guess it's like when we celebrate hockey??
Tomorrow it's off to hike cinque Terre! This is our last full week of the trip coming up, hard to believe!!
