We travelled south from Napoli to Salerno, where we hired a car for a week. Fortunately Peter is a confident driver.
With the aid of our tablet, Google maps and WiFi, we travelled to our timeshare week at Maratea. The main feature here is a large Christ, second only to the one in Rio. At night, you can't see the hill, only the floodlight image in the sky.
Our apartment was on the hill below ( second photo)
The third photo shows the road from our apartment.
The scenery was stunning, the roads windy, glad it was Peter driving.
The church at the top was very old (732 ad).
We also found a church in a cave, a rocky beach and the old town.
Kerryn joined us for a few days.
We did a day trip to Matera to see the caves of the Sassi ( Passion of Christ), and the Ionian sea for a paddle.
We had a day at the beach, a day driving in the hills, looking for castles.
Last day we visited Amalfi coast, and saw so many tourists.
We dropped the car back to Salerno, with no damage. Amazing, considering the roads and the other drivers
