Things we loved about Positano

Positano is the cute town of a mountain of houses
where we stayed for a week in a really neat old house near the top
with an awesome deck
and a quirky tiled kitchen where we made many a pasta dinner with fresh bufala mozzarella.
In addition to our abode, I also loved the narrow pedestrian path to the beach past numerous shrines, friendly cats, sea views, and great doors,

the lemons of unusual size,
which were admittedly a bit unwieldy as garnish,
the house wine and complimentary limoncello,
and the historical affiliation with the Sirens in the Odyssey which gives the town free reign to decorate with boobs. boobs on pizza boxes, busses, restaurant menus, everywhere.
Our rental house alone must have had at least twenty. sets, not just individuals.

Aww Em, that looks like such a beautiful place. I'm glad you had a great trip! Can you imagine the shot of tequila you could take with that big lemon? nice.

scott! clever german pun my friend! perhaps it would work if we had bigger glasses. or, as sarah sagely suggests, lots of tequila.

Em: Moe, what about the L.O.U.S.'s?

Moe: Lemons Of Unusual Size? I don't think they exist.

[enter giant citrus from stage left...]

[Em & Moe suck in cheeks in extreeme manner---immediately before enjoying worlds largest limoncello!]
