positano was so much fun this past weekend. and i am sun burnt which makes it even better! we got there on thursday afternoon and we had to get off of our bus and walk all the way down to our hotel, which is about 2,000 steps down. but before we started our trek, i bumped in to scottie's italian twin. seriously. this little boy puppy looks freakishly like scottie, it even has eyeliner like her. i almost cried.

we laid around and then went to dinner together as a group that night. there was the cutest little kitty at dinner and it jumped in my lap while i was eating! i loved it until it gave our GTA a panic attack and a paramedic had to talk her down. it was scary. kitty was banned after that.

on friday it was pretty overcast so we bought ferry tickets to amalfi. in amalfi i found tons of limoncello! the south of italy is known for their limoncello so this is the place to buy it. i got my dad some. we just wandered around looking at the different tourist shops, then headed back to positano. i bought a sweet cover up that i had seen before we went to amalfi and then all of the girls sat down for drinks at a restaurant by the beach. i got a mojito.... mmmm....

on saturday we went to a beach where you pay 5 euro for a chair all day. it was totally worth it. we laid in the sun all day long which was my only goal for the weekend - get a tan. im so tired of cold weather. i was desperate for sunshine. and i got it! the beach in positano has black sand which didn't feel so good on my feet. also, when we were walking to the chairs this mysterious blonde dog ran up and dug a hole under courtney's chair. we ended up naming him carlos and fed him water and peanuts all day. he hung out under our chairs, came and went as he pleased. we love him.

after everyone had gotten enough sun and drink, we headed back to the hotel and all ate dinner together at a really good restaurant called chez black right on the beach. the weekend was really relaxing and nice to just lay in the sun and not have an itinerary for once. i didn't make it to capri but i hear it's gorgeous so you should go if you're on the amalfi coast.
