Sorrento - Finding our way

Every day keeps proving what a great idea this happened to be!  This afternoon we took the shuttle into downtown.  It's a 15 minute ride and drops us off at the "Meeting Place" which is basically at the town center right outside what was once the main gate of the walled city.  

First stop - you can guess: pizza and gelato!  Good simple neapolitan pizza... then across the street for 3 scoops each of perfect gelato for both Chris and me.  Then we made our way through town looking in shops, churches, and parks.  We had to test taste lemoncello again and some lemon cream.  Everything here has lemon in it.  And there are lemon trees all over the place including out our back door.  When we got tired of walking we stopped for an expresso - or cafe' macchiato.  Again, it was perfect.  Do you notice a trend?

With a couple hours to go before dinner, we knew we would need a pick-up so we did the obvious - gelato again.  More walking to justify the gelato indulgence and then to dinner at one of the higher rated places here - Delfino.  It is a seafood restaurant at the Marina Grande area.  You walk down a steep steep passage... maybe couple hundred steps?  (Chris thinks at least 400! -- but it was a long way whatever it is.  And we walked down and then back up!)

The meal and staff were outstanding.  We started with a Peroni beer and 30 minutes to contemplate since the restaurant wasn't yet open.  We are ready to eat much earlier than the Italians.  Then, complimentary bruschetta, ravioli (really great taste), mussels and clams in garlic sauce, and lemon roasted sea bass.  molto buono!  Some good house white wine and complimentary lemoncello to finish us off.  

We walked back up the steps you already heard about.  And guess what was our reward?  Gelato!  

Back home on the shuttle and the day is ending...  A very good day two...
