The Island of Capri Italy on our Mediterranean Cruise

This is a shot of the lower portion of Capri as seen from the top of the island. It sure is picturesque! This picture was taken through the window of the trolley taking us up.

Back side of the island, a really breath taking view. I'm not sure how we ended up with this order but apparently I'm starting
at the top of the island and heading down as far as this page goes anyway.

Playground of the rich and famous .. The Rothschild yacht was in attendance with some heavy hitting names aboard .. hmm our invitation must have been lost in the mail or something.

This is the southern side of Capri .. a very short walk from the Northern side where the commercial marina is located. This is the Jet Set side of the island.

There is, amazingly enough, a road that goes from the top all the way to the bottom on the wall of this cliff.

Here is another view of that winding road. Boy, I'm glad I don't have to drive up and down that road.

This is the St Augustine Garden We were very lucky to be the first group of tourists to arrive that morning. It was quite, peaceful and beautiful. An hour later it was noisy and crowded. People everywhere.	That's Kathy way back there taking a video of me taking a photo of her...	I don't know what happened here.... I think I got a shot of the gardens that does not have Kathy in it.
Another shot of the gardens and yes Kathy is in this one.	If you look close, you will see Kathy in there.	We were quite impressed with the St Augustine gardens at the top of the island of Capri, which were absolutely lovely.
One of the little streets on the island Capri Italy.	This is Kathy of course, on the other side of the street in the preceding picture.	I'm in the front of the front car on the trolley and was thus able to get this shot out of the front window heading back down to the docks.
This is a typical street on the along this street many famous designer shops were to be found .. unfortunately we were there just before they opened for the day and our tour group had to board the trolley to go to the top before getting a chance to shop there.	Another shot of the dock area. This is very deceptive. We were about the first group to arrive. An hour or so later and you could hardly move for all the people.	This is our group having just arrived.
As we depart for Sorrento aboard the hydrofoil.
