This day in Capri we went to the Blue Grotto, a truly amazing sight to see.  We set off at 9.30am to beat the crowds (if anyone can ever do that) but it was better than waiting for later.   We booked our boat ride around the Island and taking in the Blue Grotto, when we arrived there were about 15 boats already there and we had to wait our turn which took about 3/4 hour.  When it was our turn we were put into little row boats, four of us in our boat with a boatman who rowed us into the Grotto, each boat had to wait for the water to be at its lowest and he then went by pulling on a chain and with us ducking our heads we sailed in to the huge cave and viewed the clear blue water below, it was incredible, the boatmen were amazing and all sang Italian songs whilst we were in there, took us around twice and then it was out again through the hole, after waiting our turn and for the tide to be at the right level, an experience we had never

had before and thoroughly enjoyed. After that exhilerating morning when back on dry land we went to AnnaCapri, a beautiful little town so high up the hillside we took a bus and they are something else, very narrow roads right on the edge, quite an experience to be in one.
