30th May Lunedi

 

Relaxed breakfast as usual and then went into Forio for some lunch at the little pizzeria in the main street bruschetta, Capri insalata and gelati. I ordered tiramisu and cioccolata, Andrew had 1/2 a pineapple turned into a boat with 4 different types of ice cream, sails, wafers, and a cheer leader's tinsel pom pom!
After lunch we walked around for a while then set off to the Giardini Poseidon for the afternoon. This is a health spa with 20 different pools (thermal, Kneipp, ocean water etc) with temperatures varying from 28C to 40C, a Roman sauna and the private beach, restaurant etc.
A really relaxing place, lovely flower gardens and we tried all the pools, thoroughly enjoyed our day here and sort of wish we'd come here earlier on in the week too.
As it was our last night we decided to go back to La Bussola, an excellent meal as always and our lovely owner whose name we don't know spent some time chatting to us as usual.
We bought a bottle of his nuttella (not normally on sale to the public, and decanted into an old olive oil bottle, so we are honoured) we also had free drinks and coffee as we were leaving, such a nice man.
Back at the hotel we had a nightcap on the terrace and went to bed.
