Salerno, Sorrento & Pompei (Part 2)

Then we moved on to Sorrento.  It seems to be known for it's inlay work.  We visited a shop to see tables, boxes, etc that have beautiful inlay work and saw a demonstration on how it is done.  We had about an hour on our own to wander.  We visited a cathedral, walked the streets and returned to the bus.







Saw lots of interesting trees.
I guess I would call this a breakwater??.  Nice protected spot with umbrellas and lounges, where one could get some sun or swim.  It was a long way down to get closer so we decided against it. After all we only had about an hour.


I believe this was as good a view as we got of Vesuvius.

Lots and lots of shops.  Lots of olive and lemon themed products. I picked up a cute tablecloth.  Also looked in some interesting galleries.
This appeared to be a men's club in an old church.


Waiting back at our drop off point to get back on the bus and head to Pompeii.
