Amalfi Coast

We heard about a tour called bus2alps from previous students who did the Temple Rome program. They do tours all over Europe; French Riviera, Swiss Alps, Almafi Coast, as well as day trips to Naples and Venice and other places. We booked Amalfi Coast, it had a great itinerary Pompey, cliff jumping, boat tours, and Capri and AnaCapri I was sold.
I instatntly knew it was going to be a great trip when they put in the Hangover on the bus to Sorrento. We get to our amazing hostel around 12 AM and checked-in. Seven Hostel was a chic newly opened hostel with a rooftop bar and played live music at night.
We woke up the next day bright and early and headed up to Capri the scenery was beautiful. It was so a surprise waking up to the hills and mountains. So to get to Capri we had to take a public ferry. Because it had rained the water was really really rough. It was so rough in fact that half our tour puked in bags on the ferry...yea. We then had our boat tours and my poor roomate was sick to her stomach from the previous ride. The boat tour was really awesome and fun for the people that weren't sick. However because the water was rough we could not go in the blue grotto, one of the 7 natural wonders of the world.
The tour set up a discount with a shop in Capri that custom made sandals, of course I got a pair complete with initials.  We then had a tour of Julius Caesar's garden and shopped. They also had a chair lift that was well worth the 7 Euro. It took you to the highest point of the mountain. It has spectacular views, 13 minutes of heaven.
By the end of the day we were all pretty exhausted and went out to a great restaurant were I had the best food so far in Italy. I ordered homemade pasta with mussels and clams. We then tried to go to a bar down the street but no one was really feeling it so we left.
The next day was by far the most memorable. We woke up to pouring rain on the day that we were suppose to cliff jump and go on a boat tour. Everyone was upset and in a bad mood during breakfast. We couldnt believe that the best planned day was going to be cancelled, rain or shine here we go. We got on the bus and the rain was starting to let up. We said a group prayer on the bus for the weather to clear up when we got there. Sure enough here comes the sun!!! It was such a relief that we were going to have a great day. We then get on boats to go to the cliff jumping site and also swim in caves.

I JUMPED OFF A 40FT CLIFF!!! It was crazy and terrifying the climb up was worse then the jump I must have cut myself up 5 times. It was nuts I only did it once though the landing really hurt I did not have proper form.We got back and had a few hours on the beach. It was a perfect and relaxing day.
The next day we toured the city of Pompey which was greatly preserved because of the eruption that happened 79 A.D. It was amazing how they still had original floors and mosaics. Fun fact about Pompey they had penis statues guiding the way to the brothels. They were obsessed with penises.
It was a great tour. Bus2Alps is actually going to start a US based tour too!
