Final night in Capri and Rome

Morning on Capri came grey, windy, and with a writhing sea. The wind and heavy whitecaps meant a boat tour was out of the question. We decided to pack up and head back to Rome on an earlier train to enjoy one last afternoon and it turned out even the medium-sized ferry was shut down due to the weather! Fortunately, the big ferry was still in operation and right on our schedule. Another Naples cab ride and a short wait for a delayed train brought us back to Hotel Piemonte around 3pm. The kid favorite Piazza Navona drew them in once more while St. Peters Square beckoned me for a quick sketch. We met up at Barbablu for one final, carefully planned, delicious dinner. Baylor wore his prized Barbablu shirt, much to the enjoyment of the staff. He says he "feels like part of the Barbablu family now". One last wandering around the area and everyone is already in bed, dreading a looong day of travel tomorrow. It's been a wonderful trip!
