Thursday Doors – October 11, 2018

Thursday Doors is a weekly feature allowing door lovers to come together to admire and share their favorite door photos from around the world. Feel free to join in on the fun by creating your own Thursday Doors post each week and then sharing it, between Thursday morning and Saturday noon (North American eastern time), by using the blue link-up button below. 

The Doors of Vietri sul Mare – Amalfi Coast

I’m baaaaack!

After a 3-week blogging break it feels awesome to be back for more door fun.

In my upcoming posts you can expect to see tons of doors found during our time in Italy. Just a brief warning: We covered a fair amount of territory and I took well over 1800 pics on this trip, many of them doors, so you’ll be seeing Italian doors from me for a while.

But before I start I want to take a minute to thank the three guest hosts who kept our ship on course during my absence.

For Week 1, in anticipation of our meet-up the following week Manja from Mexi Movie The Third showed us some of my own favourite Italian doors from her past posts in this collection More Norm’s Doors.

In week 2 Joey over at Joeyfully Stated reminded us that weird is wonderful with this post: Moody Blue.

For week 3 Dan from No Facilities shared some of the beauty found within Heinz Chapel. Folks, the stained glass alone will have you swooning.

My sincere thanks to all three for doing a great job of guest hosting!

And now to my Italian Doors 🙂

Hugging the rugged cliffs right next to the Port of Salerno on the eastern end of the Amalfi Coast is the lovely town of Vietri sul Mare.

Ceramics has been a tradition in this part of the world since the 15th century.

An afternoon stroll wandering the narrow streets of the old town netted us some amazing examples of both ceramics and wonderful doors.

Here’s a sampling of what we found:

The new train station

The old train station

Aged beauty

Ceramic art everywhere!

Door to some sort of electrical box?

I don’t even want to know what’s behind this one.

As always, thanks so much for visiting 🙂
