We flew from Detroit to Rome via Atlanta and then went to Sorrento via a rented manual-transmission Fiat Panda.
We got a lift on one of those electric vehicles at the Atlanta airport while transferring to our flight to Rome

Sunset Atlanta.
After arriving in Rome, we drove about three and a half hours to Sorrento. We had lunch at an AutoGrill, a rest stop with a gas station and lots of good food to eat.
After we left the Autostrada, the road to Sorrento was narrow and winding, with fantastic views of the Bay of Naples.
Hotel Gardenia: our room and balcony with a view of the main drag (Corso Italia).
We finally got to dinner around 6:30 local time and found a deserted pizza place. It was unfashionably early for dinner. Pizzeria da Franco keeps a lot of prosciutto on hand, just in case somebody wants some extra protein on their pizzas. Amazingly, William didn’t notice these prosciutti, or he would have ordered some on his pizza.
I loved how most restaurants is Sorrento closed so their staff could eat dinner together. Did you go to the Lemoncello shop for a taste?
The ride from Rome to Sorrento was scary. Proud of you for driving it yourself.
William did all the driving. He had fun because our Fiat Panda had a manual transmission. It was almost as good as his old Miata.
