Positano, welcome to the seaside town where everyone's named Luigi

Our tour guide for the day gave us the creeps, but we got to see some gorgeous vista points along the coast of Positano.
Our guide Luigi kept trying to talk us into going to the nude beach. We politely and firmly declined his offer after he told us Italians refer to white breasts as "mozzarella". Ewe.

Tonight we went to a "locals only" restaurant where we were serenaded by a bunch of guys named Luigi. Later we were told by our friend Franscesca at Missoni to check out a very chic wine bar in the hillside. Nice day...nice evening...low key.

We cancelled our trip to Rome because quite frankly, we're tired of hauling all our luggage around Italy -- not to mention, it's beautiful here.

We've decided to slow down our last few days and enjoy the pool, the beach, and the sun before heading back to L.A.

lemons!!!!!
I know you are relaxing, etc, on vacation, etc etc...but can you do me a big favor - please peel and eat one of those gigantic lemons, they are supposed to be sweet! Inquiring minds want to know....or ask someone - maybe that is a better idea. I have to know. It is sooooo beautiful there, I cannot imagine what it must be like in person, when it is incredibly, unbelievably muy lindo in photos. xoJ
