#Iclosemyeyes…e siamo tornati a Capri. All I need is the rhythm divine. And now that we’ve been, I know to skip il taxi and take us up on il funiculare to Piazza Umberto I. It’s almost Aperol o’clock, and if we’re on time, then we’ll be right on time to enjoy an afternoon welcome from […]

Leave it to Ryan Murphy to make this happen (and to make it happen right). Because the times have changed, hunty. Yes, they have. A not a moment too soon.
