Positano by Mapquest.

Right on the main road...no turns at all!

1st glimpse of Positano

Sky and water are the perfect color

An Italian Pyramid.

The Happy Campers.
So funny...we got all set to travel to Positano...even hand copied directions from Mapquest so they'd be at our fingertips...as always we made it 99% of the way without a hitch...that 1% can be a bitch...lost in places we don't even know...stopped and talk to 6 different Italians who all pointed, grunted and sent us on our way...we must of overshot our turn by 30 Km...The last guy said something about sinistra and then sinistra again...luckily sinistra is one of the few words I know...turn left! Took his advise and finally saw a sign and got on track...now we pull out the directions because we are unsure of exactly where we are...drive and keep following signs, check directions...we should have like 15 different turns coming up because we landed on the road we'd missed...just keep driving, no turns just signs...pull into Positano and, Voila! we see the sign for our hotel...I can't believe it, if you'd seen the directions we got from mapquest...remember there is only 1 road into Positano, you can come from the west or east...either way we would have driven right by the hotel...I'm baffled where all these turns would have led us!
