Capri

Published on

This morning we loaded into two mini busses and drove to the ferry dock where we boarded a ferry for Capri. Once there we got on a hydrofoil for a tour around the island.

We saw several caves. One being the Coral Cave. Coral was visible at the edge of the rock, just at the water line. A large hole in the rock was related to when Tiberias lived in Capri.

Next we saw the Faraglioni, a famous set of three limestone rocks. The middle one has an arched hold in it that is referred to as the tunnel of love. The shape of these rocks is a result of erosion due to wind, rain, and waves.

We passed as statue of a boy on top of a large rock and were told he was Genermo.

A road that wound around a hillside off in the distance held some more modern interest. It is dubbed the Mama Mia road because that is where the movie was filmed.

After the tour we wandered around Capri, taking more photos and doing a bit of shopping. It’s such a beautiful area.
