This day was amazing. Really, every day was, but this day was so beautiful beyond words!
We again had a tour guide lined up through RomeCabs (they should pay me for advertising). They picked us up right off the cruise ship in Naples and we were headed down the Amalfi Coast!
Here's a map of the area we covered. Our cruise ship was in Naples and we drove down the coast stopping in Sorrento, Positano, Praiano, and Amalfi. On our way back to the cruise, we stopped in Pompeii and saw Mount Vesuvius.
This is a view of Mount Vesuvius. The volcano is best known for the eruption in AD 79, which destroyed the city of Pompeii.
Watch out, picture overload from here on out! As we were driving along the coast, we stopped several times for picturesque views!

Sorrento
The "beach" in Sorrento!
I LOVE these flowers growing up this building. And of course... more gelato.
Positano
Amalfi
I would have loved to have more time to kayak around this coast! Next time...
We ate here at this cafe overlooking Amalfi.
We had the best pizza ever and tried the traditional lemon soda.
A church in Amalfi. There was a wedding inside!
Eating more gelato!
Look at those huge lemons! Sorrento is known for its lemons and you can see lemon trees growing everywhere.
Next stop: Pompeii.
The Pompeii ruins were incredible! Look at these bodies preserved by volcanic ash.

Back on the cruise ship, we were able to see this sunset over Naples! So pretty and a great way to end such a great day.
That night, the game show was, "The Perfect Couple" and Jordan and I were selected as one of three couples to compete for the title!
There were three competitions, and sure enough, we won all three!!! We won a bottle of champagne, which we gave to our room attendant.

Of course you won Best Couple, that's awesome! I've always wanted to see the Pompeii ruins, so cool!
And that pizza is the best looking pizza I have ever seen!
