Wanting a more local day we walked into Sorrento and loved the place, with its bustling streets and a surprise too!
Some streets were busier than others
The cathedral...
...and three wise monkeys having a rest in its grounds.
Looking down to the crypt of the Basilica di Sant'Antonino...
...with its curious medallions...
...each representing someone's ailment to be prayed for.
The marble work was exquisite
Here's the surprise: just a few steps from the town centre there's a deep chasm...
...containing an old wheat mill, originally from the 13th century but long since abandoned.
However wherever you go it's hard to escape the mighty Vesuvius, today shrouded in cloud.
