Almost two years ago I had the awesome pleasure of flying to Italy with two of my besties , Jo Clark and Bre Thurston, for 10 days of adventure (and to assist my girl Bre Thurston shoot an amazing wedding in Rome). Our trip flew by. We laughed until we cried, laughed again, and laughed some more. Our first day was a long day of travel. We flew from SFO to Rome. Then we hopped on a train and headed south to Naples. Once in Naples we cruised in a ferry to Capri. After 20 hours of planes and trains and ferries we finally arrived at the cutest hotel overlooking the harbor. Our tired selves were rewarded with a delicious meal with a view of the ocean. Pure bliss.
We spent two glorious days frolicking around Capri, swimming, hiking, and eating at the best restarants on the island. After Capri we ended up in Sorrento for two more days on the Amalfi Coast. We hired the nicest man to drive us on the Amalfi Coast, Francesco. He drove us into all of the towns and recommended a spot for lunch. Francesco told us all about the art of pizza making, lemon trees, how to spot a fine mozzarella. He chatted about family and his kids. He made our trip wonderful. The next day he drove us out to Pompei before taking us to the train station to head back to Rome.
Once in Rome we touristed around, checking out all the sights. The day of the wedding was amazing and it was quite the experience. You can check out all of the photos here on Bre’s website! Our last day in Rome was sad. How could 10 days go by so quickly? It has been a couple of years and I still have such fond memories of this trip. I love these girls and I love our friendship.
