Sunday in Sorrento

If all goes according to plan, we should arrive at the gorgeous Bristol Hotel in Sorrento around noon on Sunday.  To see the location of the hotel on Google maps, use these coordinates for the address rather than the street address:  40.626787,14.364538.  (For some reason if you use the street address Google places you a half mile further up the road.)


If you use the Google street view function (click on the little man standing atop the + sign and drag him to the arrow on your map) you can see the front of the hotel and the incredible view across the street.

Via Capo, facing south toward the center of Sorrento

In street view you can also see the sidewalk along Via Capo (on the left, above); if you head south on Via Capo and then east on Corso Italia, you'll be in the heart of old Sorrento on foot in a matter of minutes.  It's less than a mile from the hotel to Piazza Tasso, the center of town.
