The 700 steps

‘The 39 700 steps!’


As I stepped off the boat relieved that finally I was on steady ground, I looked up at the dramatic rocks above me. I had arrived in Capri with my family, by the one and only way of getting there: boat.
At the hotel, the receptionist told us that there was a short walk down to the beach so we all decided to go there tomorrow.
The following morning I quickly got together my essential sunbathing kit, suntan lotion, shades, book etc. We all then headed down the steps and after what seemed like an age we reached an old bench.
