Endless Day of Walking

View from our room

Today Krysta and I decided to do the Walk of Gods starting in Nocelle, which is usually the ending point but since that is where we are staying we just did it in reverse. 7 of our other classmates went to Positano this weekend as well and they said they were staying in up in the hills as well but when I said Nocelle? They said that didn't sound familiar. As Krysta and I started the walk we started up the first set of stairs and we heard someone shout behind us and low and behold it was our classmates. 
Unfortunately, it was extremely cloudy today, especially so high up in the hills that we couldn't get amazing pictures of Positano but it was still worth it because the views were amazing for us in person and the stuff we experienced on the walk was pretty cool. It's hard to explain but it was really interesting seeing the people who have houses and crops up in the hills and how they function on the uneven, rocky ground. 


Massive Rosemary bushes that were all along the path that made me super excited. I picked some and added it to my sandwich later.

We ran into some American boys who wanted a picture and when I took it they said lets flex but make it look natural so we look buff. Then Krysta and I decided to do the same :P
There were olive trees and grape vines everywhere but sadly it is too early in the season to be growing.

At one point there was a fork in the road and we didn't know which way to go so we went right, which was going down and this ended up being the shorter path that led into Praiano. It still took us over two hours so we were happy with that decision.

More dogs I pet. It makes me nervous when all the dogs here come out onto the edge of the roof 
Positano 
We walked about Praiano a bit but there didn't seem to be too much to do so we ended up hopping on the SITA back to Positano but got off in the town this time. We walked down to the beach and guess who we ran into again! The rest of the day we just walked around the little shops of Positano and had dinner and then to get back to Nocelle we walked 2000 steps straight up to the town, it was quite the workout especially after Krysta's and my 11 km hike earlier.
