I Dream of the Places I've already Been!

-Since it's summer, I thought my first post should pay homage to a hotel located on that little island off the Amalfi Coast; Capri, Italy.***** LNH

The Quisisana (Capri, Italy)

The Quisisana is the Grande Dame of Capri.  Walking down an old cobblestone lane flanked with gelaterias and glamorous shops, the Quisisana emerges in all its glory! The lobby drips with such luxury—you almost forget you're on an island where you're supposed to be sporting swim suits and flip flops. Upon checking into my stunning suite, I noticed that the "spare" fridge—the room had 2 refrigerators—had been stocked with what appeared to be an entire fruit farm.  I thought it was my welcome gift!  Fast forward about 12 hours.  I settled in poolside, ordered a margherita pizza, and realized I had forgotten my book back at the crib. (side note, the best pizza I have ever had in my life, is down a narrow ally way off the main drag in Capri, its called Aurora. Ask a local, they'll point you in the right direction!)  So I made my way back to my room, slipped the key into the door and walked in on the maid service cutting into a cantaloupe.  Thank goodness I didn't have a midnight snack, or Maria would have missed lunch.  For some, this might have been a deterrent, but when you're in Capri, you throw caution and expectations to the wind.  Heaven forbid the women cleaning the rooms enjoy some fruit on a sweeping balcony that overlooks the sea.  I didn't blow the whistle.  I just considered brushing up on my Italian and applying for a job!  

To wrap it up, don't miss Capri, don't miss the Pizza on Capri, and don't miss the Quisisana!!  Just remember to pack your most glamorous beach attire!!
