We made it to Sorrento just in time for some afternoon shopping and strolling. After some amazingggg gelato per Rick Steve's recommendation (the trend continues), we headed over to a local lemon grove.
Lemon trees are very prevalent on the Southern Italian landscape. Interspersed with orange trees, the aroma of the city is reminiscent of the Sevilla fragrances.
The lemon grove was filled of beautiful trees. We even saw a grafted one that donned both oranges and lemons on the same tree.
A sweet woman was selling their homemade lemon products inside. She happily handed out free samples of limoncello, a lemon liquer very popular to the region.
I can't say it's anywhere close to as good as E-Daddy's limeade, but I do always appreciate free samples.

Did you see a Sprite tree with Lemons and Limes on it? Sound like we are having a great time :). Enjoy. Love you!
