Beautiful Capri

Visited the Isle of Capri on a day trip from Sorrento and was entranced by the beautiful scenery, from the land and the sea.
Being spring time there are many plants bursting into flower and their colours make a nice contrast to the white limestone cliffs.
The Natural Arch was a good walk down a well signposted path, with many steps.
Capri has been home to many famous people an d is still the playground and favoured destination of the rich and famous. General Eisenhower and Winston Churchill stayed here. Today the hotel prices are said to be 1,000 euro per night and that doesn't include breakfast.
No Chyfey I didn't get any rubbing at Pompeii as I don't usually do this at World Heritage sites. The only drain cover I saw was not inspiring- photo below and certainly not from AD 79!

    I was thinking more the info boards,but now remember there weren't any but in the 80s ,you had to buy a guide book.
    And the 1994 kind of hints at its date of manufacture .
    Love the natural arch photo.
