Enjoy the sun

preparing some food and having a picnic on the beach is the best way to enjoy. There are so many families having fyn there. Swimming, having sunbath, and seeing people having fun. At that moment, it seems that all my worries have flied far away~~~
Valle dei Mulini
by sandysmith
Continue from the Valle dei ferriere through the long, winding Valle dei Mulini which abounds in lemon groves and trough which the Canneto stream flows. Remains of a former ironfoundry on the higher part of the valley can still be seen, along with the ruins of an aqueduct and what remains of the many paper factories which made Amalfi paper famous with the Curia and religious institutes up to the XII century.
The road from Sorrento to Amalfi.

From my (long) experience of Italy and Positano I agree with Geoveo:
"Many of the local drivers are impatient, discourteous and downright dangerous. The tour buses bully there way through rarely giving way and the tourists meander along."
It's just so that the local drivers, regular and tour bus drivers, are obliged to drive on that road to do their work or to go to their work.
When they are delayed by tourists who "ignore anybody who drives in your boot" they get nervous and try to overtake these slow drivers under very risky conditions.
If you want to make friends in Italy avoid ignoring the local traffic bad or good habits.
Ciao.
Arriving by boat, I think,...

... is a real must see. The city is situated at the mouth of the Valley of the Mills, with its characteristic groups of houses clinging to the rocks. The approach to Amalfi is dramatic, whether you come from Positano or from Salerno.
