Some friends and I decided to take a much-needed day trip (sans kids) to Capri Island this weekend. We had a great time! Capri (pronounced Cap-reee, emphasis on the Cap) is an Island off the coast of Naples and is a major tourist destination. It is known as a playground of the rich and famous. It is beautiful, and there are some spectacular views. I don't think it is any prettier or nicer than the Amalfi Coast- Positano definitely gets my vote- but it was a nice day nonetheless. We took the aliscalfo (hydrofoil, fast ferry) over, had a relaxing breakfast in the main piazza while people-watching, shopped for a while, and had a really nice lunch. Then we roamed around the small side streets some more, had some delicious gelato in still-warm homemade waffle cones, meandered down to the port again, and boarded the ferry home. After a relaxing day like this with good friends, I feel rejuvenated and ready to come home and face my many responsibilities with a fresh new attitude!

That sounded much better than a day of scrap booking. :) Do you just pinch yourself every day?!
