The Isle of Capri is located off Naples, Italy. It is a marvelous place to visit for the day. Be sure to bring your comfortable walking shoes as it is quite hilly. You travel from the harbor at Naples via boat and I recommend you sit towards the center as the ride can be quite choppy and lead to sea-sickness. I did ok coming and going and was thankful for that. I had planned to do the grotto tour but the sea was too choppy that day. You can see that we went out in the motor boat to the cave area and how the wind was whipping the waves about in a couple of the photographs. Enjoy.
Be sure to check out Sky Watchers from all over the world at SkyWatch Friday.

Beautiful images -
I slowly scrolled down until I realized that the location was my beloved Capri!
Erin, your photos are wonderful and bring back my memories of 1987! We were with a tour but could split up once on the island. I just loved walking through the little town and up high above the most beautifully blue/green sea I've ever seen! It was calm and warm that day, too...so it was wonderful, and not bad on the ferry, either. I'm sure your trip was fabulous!!!
A snazzy boat in the first pic. Capri looks to be a very scenic location. Photos excellent as per usual. I especially liked the second and the third shot very much even if they are all great.
Oh Erin, these are exquisite ... print them on canvas paper and they'll look like paintings!
You sure seemed to capture the essence of Capri.
I love boat rides! My grandfather was a sea captain and when I was a kid, we used to go with him fishing mackerel in the sea... Lovely pictures you shared, Erin!
Wish I were there! Beautiful!
Erin, your photos are beautiful. I've never been to Italy/Capri so thanks for the tour.
Stunning photos all of them! Some are sweet and peaceful and others impressive. Very beautiful! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks also for the visit and comment on the tragedy in my country!
Never been always wanted too. It does look like a stunning slice of island life.
Good post, I think I would have been sick from the choppy seas.
Your photos are beautiful. Very inviting. I'm sure you had a wonderful time over there.
What a fabulous sequence of shots. I love the sky but also the boats and landscapes and buildings.
I've always wanted to see Capri -- thanks for taking us along.
No I regret NOT going to Capri the one time I could.....
Lovely photos, they have a very special light!
These are such beautiful pictures. I would love to go there someday. Thanks for sharing. Happy SWF!

Or just really really cool photographs?
Erin, theses are all excellent captures. I'd like to ride on the first boat. Glad you didn't get sea sick.
My snail mail address is the same.
Nice series of photos, but my fav is #4. If ever I go I'll come prepared, thanks for the advise. Motion sickness, that's me!
That looks like a great side trip, except for the choppy seas part.....beautiful pictures.

Yes, thanks for the tour of the Isle of Capri. And you have a nice list of blogs listed. I will have to come back and investigate them. Rain and clouds now in Northern VA.

Fabulous compilation!
I love your beautiful photos! Thanks for the view of that part of the world.
Thanks also for your comment on my blog. I edited it to make the photos larger and to add that we've had rain off and on. (You had asked if we got rain out of the clouds.)
Have a great weekend!
Oh my these photos are fabulous!!!
Take me away!! Brings back memories of my time last summer in Italy!! Oh that photo of Florence in previous..sigh.
Beautiful SkyWatch series.
All the photo look like a watercolour paintings.
Very beautiful photos !
Beautiful shots. I especially like the last one with the mountains in the background.
never been to Capri and never will so I really appreciate your description of the boat ride so at least I have slight idea of the atmosphere.
These photos are just stunning, Erin! Thank goodness for blogs, so we can see places we've never been to before through the eyes of a "friend"! =)
I got your comment but accidentally deleted it! You can email me at stitchintyme9 @ aol. =)
More beautiful shots, like the ones above. I love that they look like paintings. Some of these would make beautiful puzzles that I'd buy in a hot sec. :-)
Hello, Erin. Thanks for all your nice comments on my blog. I have finally gotten around to checking yours, and your photos awaken my wanderlust! They're great, and I'll be popping back.
