Italians have a saying 'Dolce far niente' - the sweetness of doing nothing! An avid traveler donkey named Diesel, takes you to southwestern Italy, to the magical destinations of Sorrento, Amalfi, and Positano to view the exquisite Naples Bay, the historical mount Vesuvius which in AD79 buried a civilization of 16,000 people of Pompeii and Herculaneum. You taste limoncello made from the zest of Femminello St. Teresa or Sfusato lemons, shop at the artisan stores for the world class leather outfits, visit the Europe's first homemade papermaking boutiques, walk along the rocky trails and staircases, pass tiny inlets and emerald coves leading to Spiaggia di Fornillo. You spend memorable nights at the Grand Hotel Excelsior Vittoria in Sorrento, or Le Sirenuse in Positano. You cultivate the sweetness of doing nothing but falling in love with a place that is so gorgeous that seems unreal.
