Hi Everyone!

I rented another car for this leg of the journey as that allowed me to get up close and experience fully both Mount Vesuvius and the meandering drive of the Amalfi coast.

Spoiler alert: it was beautiful. Flowers flowers everywhere. Got some more awesome drone shots. There are some sections of the video that are sped up sequences of me driving all over the place so it might get a bit too much/dizziness inducing for some.

There were no drones allowed for basically all the cool little towns along the Amalfi coast, but I thought up the genius plan to drive in and up behind one of the towns to the ginormous cliff above and fly my drone from there. It worked out quite well. There is a clip where I’m making a face just before those drone shots - Erics don’t do cliffs well. It was amazing and scary as all heck to be up that high.

If you can believe it, the camera doesn’t do justice to the flower explosion that was happening up on mount Vesuvius. The Yellow flowers dominate the landscape and there are little pockets of purple and pink ones. It was like being inside a painting. Such a great view of Naples below as well.

Every little detail was taken into account it seemed all along Amalfi. Rose bushes grown into arches. All hedges clipped just so. I could tell the people who live there love the place and take great care of it all.

Off to Rome next. Hope you all enjoy the Video!
