Taking It Easy in Piano

We are enjoying our time in the small town of Piano which is near Sorrento, Italy.  It has been warm and sunny here but not so hot that we can't do our usual walking.  Instead of taking the train into Sorrento the other day we walked the crooked road that followed the coast line.  We walked 7.5 miles.  The views out to the Med were beautiful and the homes and lemon groves made the walk a cultural hike.

Sorrento is a busy and bustling tourist town, Piano is a laid back "watch the world go by" place.  We have spent each evening in the town square having our dinner and people watching.  The later it gets the more the locals turn out.  Kids, teenagers, families and old men line the streets and square.  Everyone is talking loud and fast, arms and hands are waving in all directions.  I think if you tied an Italians' hands behind their back they would be unable to speak.

Yesterday we walked to the harbor in Piano.  There were lots of boats to look at so I was in heaven.

Some little boats, some big boats..

We had lunch on the boardwalk in the marina.  It was good people watching as usual.

Terri is happy after lunch.

Too many good lunches for me, I won't fit in this Fiat.

This week is feeling like our vacation in the middle of our vacation.  We have been relaxing and reading everyday.  The deck here is the "right place" to watch a sunset.

Life is good.
