Sunday 1st October 2017
Another early day as we set off for the train ride from Rome to Salerno where we were met by a driver to take us to Amalfi, which took 3/4 hour.  We enjoyed the train ride which took 2 hours and in a fast train didn't seem that long at all.  The ride to Amalfi was windy and hilly but the driver knew exactly where and what to do, the traffic is horrendous on the narrow roads but the drivers are very good, nobody seems to get upset, they use cellphones whilst driving, turn their heads to talk to us and still get us here safely, lovely people.
We arrived at our appartment which is up 85 steps, our manager, Luigi helped us with and carried on case on his shoulder and one under his arm.  We have the most beautiful view of Amalfi beach, town and sea, everything is right in our sight.  So very lucky to have chosen such a spot.  The weather is nothing but perfect.  We walked around the town and quickly realised it is a tourist spot for the ferries and buses, busy busy.
