Queen of Amalfi, Positano #atozchallenge
After a lot of thought I ended up with ‘Q’ for queen. Well, not exactly, ‘Q’ for queen was the first word that came to my mind but, I didn’t want to write about the monarchy too many people have done that already. My queen is the queen of the Amalfi coast line, Positano. We were there for a day and a half during the Easter weekend. Other than occasional moments of drenching rain, that were spent trudging up winding hill roads in search of our hotel with a sea view and private terrace, we quite enjoyed the quaint town on the top of a hill. I am glad it wasn’t sunny, I can’t imagine trekking down to the beach at sea level in the heat!

Gorgeous photo essay! I love hilly seaside villages and Positano is such a beautiful one. I didn’t know that Steinbeck visited and wrote an article about the place. Very cool!

Tui Snider, This discovery was completely by fluke. Only discovered because I was looking up the hill to see how far I had to go and looked at the wall of the house in front of me 😀
I love exploring, shame it wasn’t sunny. xx
I know! But if it didn’t rain I wouldn’t get the dramatic pictures!
I absolutely love the Amalfi coast…especially when it’s off-season!
It looks absolutely delightful. Been there once many moons ago.
great pictures! looked like fun.
