un posto perfetto

Question: Is it worth €300 more a week to stay in town, rather than 3 km away?

Answer: Since the 3 km are 3 km on the dwindling Amalfi coast road, I think it is. I want us to be able to walk wherever we want to go, not to take the bus first and then walk. I think I have found the ultimate place for me and Alexander to stay next summer, and I’m so excited!

Update only half an hour later: What happened? What got into me? Am I crazy? I did it! I booked the apartment! I did purchase the rental rescheduling insurance just in case, just because I’m booking so far ahead of time, and I haven’t paid the reservation fee yet, but nonetheless I have booked the apartment for two weeks, July 19th to August 2nd 2008.

This must be right. I have looked at that other apartment, the one in Vettica, for two months and just never got around to booking it; but this apartment I looked at for 45 minutes and all of a sudden I had clicked the “book now” button and entered my details. I think this is what they call “following your gut feeling”.

    Woohoo! Congrats on the apartment–and I agree with you; it’s definitely worth the extra money to not have to worry about transportation every single day (that’d add up too!).

    Brava :)

    It’s a good thing you never got around to booking the other one!

    I know I’ve mentioned this before, but you will be very happy with the service from Summer in Italy…they are first rate! :-)

    Good for your honey! the place looks amazing! Alexander must be so excited. I love your spontaneity. I can’t wait til Giada gets a little older and I can plan a trip like this. Wonderful!
