3 Countries, 3 States and the District of Columbia

by safarisogood

Beginning Saturday morning, I traveled through or to Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, Washington DC, Switzerland and Italy!  By the time we arrived at our destination (Sorrento, Italy), it was late morning on Sunday.

We board a small commuter plane to take us from Zurich to Naples.

By the time we arrived at the Hotel Astoria in Sorrento, we were exhausted. We settled in and and decided to rest/nap for a couple hours. We then went out for a late lunch and walked the streets until the humidity drenched us. Tomorrow afternoon, Hailey and her classmates arrive in Sorrento! We were excited and delighted to find the student tour group is staying in the same hotel as we are! The Hotel desk clerk was also thrilled to learn our granddaughter was in the group, thereby reducing the chances that we would be disturbed by a bunch of college students staying in this hotel with us.

Land is scarce, so all available space is used, including alleyways.
