Capri - Home of the rich and famous

Ever since emperor Tiberius choose Capri as his leasure island, it has drawn the rich and the famous. I am not sure why, because there are plenty of other islands that have a fancy cave, and are surrounded by steep clifss. But I suppose that part of being famous is giving the paparazzi something to write about, so that that you actually stay famous. Also for the papparazi it is convenient, as they dont need to stalk every single islands, but they can just focus on one.

Capri was a really bad anchorage. The location where we would like to anchor was swarmed by little boats. While they left for the night, they still took up precious space during the day. The anchorage we finally took had a lot of swell, and little wind. This causes SaltyPaws to align sideways with the waves. And although not a monuhull. Still some rocking went on during the night. If can report however, that the plants stayed safely in their spot. We ended up being anchored with a field of super yachts. As if there is no global warming, they kept themselves bathed in lights, all trhoufh the night. We also witnessed a helicopter fly over, but we couldn't see anyone being droped down on the deck. When we departed, we sailed next to a deathstar like boat for a while, and one of the guests was regarding us from the top deck pool¹.

1I am sure that there was another pool on this yacht. Pools seldom come by themselves on this type of boat.
