We took the mid-morning ferry from Positano to Capri. A few notes about the ferries – the ferry between Positano and Capri does not run year-round. It starts running in early April and ends around late October or early November. If you visit in off-season, you will have to take a taxi to Sorrento and… Continue reading A Day in Capri
I usually make lots of dinner reservations for vacations but this trip I decided that we would play most of it by ear and be spontaneous with a few exceptions. The main exception being our lunch in Positano on our second day there, which just happened to be my birthday. Given that I plan all… Continue reading An Amazing Birthday Lunch at La Sponda Restaurant at Hotel Sirenuse

Fortunately, there is a taxi stand right next to the Campo de Fiori which made it super easy to get a ride to the train station but I was surprised how long it took due to traffic. Give yourself plenty of time! Still, we… Continue reading Italy Continues – Amalfi Coast and Positano

We cashed in many, many miles for 2 roundtrip business class tickets so we were able to catch a little shut eye on the long flight over. We went straight from the… Continue reading Three Days in Rome – Day 1
In May we visited the Viceroy Hotel in the Riviera Maya for a long 4 day, 3 night weekend. Needless to say, we fell in love with this hotel. We prearranged for private airport transfers from the Cancun airport and were picked up in a large SUV with the A/C going full blast, which was… Continue reading Viceroy Hotel, Riviera Maya
