Italy

[cos]

I'm on Capri for the Inbar family "reunion". I put that in quotes because there's never been one before, so it's not really a "re"-union, especially since my generation keeps growing and growing due to divorces and remarriages - I've acquired a bunch of non-blood-related cousins, for example. Also it's not really a "re"-union when there are several people here I'd never met before :)

We're here for the week, then most of my family are returning home and I will meet magickalpony in Sorrento and spend another week on the mainland, and return on May 3rd. If you're my friend on Facebook, follow my profile for occasional photos and videos this week from Capri (I don't know how much net access I'll have next week). If not, I'll post a bunch of links to the photos here on LJ after I get home.

In the meantime, here's the video I posted last night, my cablecar ride from the ferry port below Capri town up the cliffs to the town:

Oh, Italy is so close!
You should come over to stay here in Cologne for a few days :)

I took that very same ride about three years ago. It's scary! Those turns are narrow....beautiful, though.

Capri is so pretty. I remember taking a ski-lift style ride up to a cliffside overlook when I was there in middle school.

Do you like Capri? I have a hard time picturing you there. I have an even harder time picturing an Inbar family reunion. Good luck with it.

I went to Capri once, but it was so long ago that all I remember was that the boat ride was a lot of fun.

Oooh! No time for that on this trip, but I'd love to meet you sometime.

The cablecar is on a perfectly straight path (except for the vertical dimension - the slope might vary a little).

Today I got a video of a cab ride we took from the marina on the opposite side of the island, up to the town center. That has nice scary narrow turns :) I'll probably post that eventually too.

One of the things I have gained on this trip is the ability to picture an Inbar family reunion. And soon it will be pictured on my Facebook account too :)
