Last Day in Sorrento

This is our last day in Sorrento, and we're still going strong and making the most of it!  The children are glad that we came here after Rome so they could relax and spend time together in the water. A couple are tired of pasta.  Olivia wants a plain ham and cheese sandwich and a couple of others wanted peanut butter. (Should have brought a jar or two). But when they get restless, it must be time for more gelato!  Our hotel has an elevator that runs between 10 am and 2pm, and then stops, and starts up again at 4 pm. We don't understand that but it's okay.  The hotel has a lovely pool, but we decided it was for serious older vacationers who wanted peace and quiet and sunshine. So we go to the beach. The sand is black volcanic sand but that doesn't bother the kids.  They have enjoyed diving down to find ancient Roman glass and interesting stones. Here are some pictures of what they love to do.

We are checking out of the hotel at 3:00 and heading back to Rome FCO for our flights out in the morning. We all leave within about 30 minutes of each other, so we'll have plenty of time for farewells. Most of us will meet back up in three week’s time in Jacksonville beach for a week with more cousins. We've all had a wonderful time and hate to see it end. But the moments we've shares, the sights and places we've seen, and the laughs and stories we have to tell will last a lifetime. This has truly been a trip of to remember and each of us is so blessed to have been a part of it.
