Before we left for Italy, I read quite a few reviews and discussion forums on TripAdvisor (which, by the way, is a great site for information). One of the comments routinely stated is that driving in Italy should be avoided at all costs. And, if you do decide to rent a car and drive, make sure that when driving the Amalfi Coast you pay attention and don't look at the beautiful scenery. Ahhh, after just returning from a driving trip to Positano, I completely understand why.
The view is breathtaking. The roads are a mixture of hairpin turns and narrowing passages. My palms were sweaty as Chuck navigated his way through the crazy traffic and hairpin turns. I kept thinking if the concrete barriers were enough to stop a car from careening off the cliff. I suspect not.
Positano is a cute little town on the Mediterranean with narrow shop-lined pedestrian passageways snaking their way down to the ocean.
Some pictures from our adventures...
Cute shops lined the narrow passageways through Positano.
Don't those tomatoes look good??

I can't imagine that this little barrier would stop a car from careening down the cliff.
