Sorrento

Legend has it Sorrento got is name from Ulysses who was devoted to the cult of the Sirens, hence, Sorrento.

I was so exhausted by the time I reached Sorrento after 2 weeks of travelling, that I dragged myself through the town for as long as I could stand.  I just didn't have anymore energy to make it down to Positano.
Overlooking Punta del Capo
Twisting roads in the gorge leading to the Amalfi Coast.

I had a friend join me for lunch.
He likes peanuts.

A lovely spot for lunch.

Done.  Done.  I was done.  The World Cup finals would be that evening, Germany vs Argentina.  I watched a little bit, but had no energy to last through the whole match which went into overtime anyway.  I flew back to Cleveland the next morning and slept for about 2 days.
