Days #5 and #6- Cilento Coast

South of the Amalfi Coast, is the Cilento Coast.  We found a fun Agritourismo about 1/2 mile from the beach for Tuesday and Wednesday.  Tuesday morning we had a tour of our favorite Caseficcio where they make Mozzarella di Buffala.  Everyone got to try their freshly made mozzarella.  The little ones are called Bocconcini.  
After that, we drove to Paestum, where the very old Greek Temples are.


                    I got this cute picture of Charlotte taking pictures of everything. 


We then drove to Casal Velono where we had a delightful bed and breakfast place.  The girls mainly wanted to go to the beach and to the pool.  So that is what they did for two days straight.  Hung out at the beach and the pool.



On Wednesday, the forcast was for rain straight after 10:00 am.  So we got to the beach by 9 so we could have at least an hour for the girls to play in the sea and on the beach.  



But it didn't rain a drop until 10 pm.  So the girls were at the beach for four hours and then in the pool for another five hours. 






             The pool was so pretty.  The girls loved playing in it.  I liked looking at it!



                              By the end of the day they were both pretty tired!

We had a buffet breakfast in the morning and then at night we had a five course meal which was very good.  Our eating area was under a flower surrounded covered veranda that overlooked the Mediterranean Sea.
The weather was the perfect temperature, not too hot and humid.  Just right.



The first morning we had breakfast, Isabel didn't like any of the choices.  Her mom told her she had to choose at least one thing.  Here is her total breakfast!


Charlotte loved the Nutella, and licked hers all gone!



   The rest of us really liked the home made goat cheese and the homemade pastas.


    We would go here again in a heart beat.  The rooms were comfortable, with airconditioning if we needed it.  The grounds were beautifully manicured with gorgeous stone and brick pathways everywhere.  It was a lovely retreat.
