On our last day in Italy, we took a high speed ferry to visit the Island of Capri. I was so excited since I have been looking forward to going to the island for a long time. Known as a popular location for celebrities, it was one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen.
Riding the bus on the Mamma Mia road up the hills was an unique experience. I was impressed how skillfully the bus drivers drove along the curving road. One of the highlights for me was the chair lift to the highest point on the island. The slow ride up to and down from the smaller town of Anacapri allowed us to see the breathtaking views of the island.
I was amazed by the vibrancy and the liveliness of Capri. When we went shopping, I noticed that many people spoke english since the island is a high tourist attraction. I was a bit disappointed by the lack of variety of shops. However we ended up buying many lemon soaps that the island was known for.
It was great to spend our last day of Italy at the island of Capri. It was relaxing and unforgettable. I will definitely be returning to this place.
When we returned back to Villa Vergiliana, we had another amazing dinner. However it was especially significant because it was our last and after dinner, we thanked Mina and her family for everything. Although I am excited to finally return home, I will not forget the food and the comfort of Villa Vergiliana. Ciao Italia!
So glad you got to visit Capri - your group is the first to have taken a bus or a chair lift on the island. You obviously got great views from the chair lift! The farewell cake looks amazing. Nice to see Mina wearing a school scarf. The Villa Vergiliana is a very special place. Thank you for writing this, Julia. Good job.
