Amalfi Coast & Positano
Experiencing two distinct regions of Italy, namely the Amalfi Coast and Positano, was truly a rewarding sensation. The awe I felt was boundless! The only aspect I didn’t manage was a swim in the crystalline waters, a venture I eagerly anticipate for the future.
A fascinating narrative was interwoven with Positano, centered around the revered icon of the Black Madonna, which was once plundered by pirates. It was amidst these shores that sailors claimed to hear a celestial whisper, “Posa Posa.” Guided by this ethereal voice, they transported the icon to the city of Positano, where it was enshrined within the walls of the Santa Maria church, a testament that endures to this day.
At every turn, the landscape was adorned with an abundance of lemons, a feature so pronounced it’s often referred to as the Lemon City. Amidst these citric groves thrived an array of citrus wonders: oranges, limes, grapes, pomegranates, and the vibrant green olives. These olives were a revelation of taste, unlike anything I’d ever experienced. The memory of Positano will remain etched in my heart, a place I vow to revisit once more in my lifetime.
