Today we woke up in Sorrento in a driving rain, the first rain we'd seen while in Italy. The good news today was booked to to an all indoors day anyway. We had planned to take a cooking class at Vila Ida from the family that owns the Villa. It's been in their family for generations and the grounds were breathtaking.
