Sorrento - Free Day to explore

S 




Sorrento is a charming ancient port town and in this busy season the streets are bustling with tourists.  There are numerous hotels in the area and cruise ships pull into port every day.
The narrow winding streets are lined with interesting shops displaying various local wares.
Fresh fruit and vegetable markets are bright and colorful and shopping is a wonderful experience in this maze of winding streets.  Shoes line the walls, beautiful hand made linens hang in the windows along with jewelry and intricate hand made boxes. Charming restaurants and gelato shops are plentiful.
The ladies spent many hours exploring and shopping. 
The weather was warm and sunny so after a busy day exploring Sorrento it was nice to relax around the pool area at the Mediterrano hotel.  A little fun in the pool and a refreshing glass of wine was the perfect way to end off a great day.
