La Gestazione Salvaggia
We escaped Positano by sea and made our way back along the coast to retrieve our supercamels, who were pleased to see us. We sped northwards in search of an easier path inland. Leo's in-laws pursued us for a while, waving their selfie sticks, but they couldn't keep up with the supercamels.
In summary, the mountainous southern region of Italy is impassible, at least by camel or horse. The chance of an arranged marriage is very high, as is the risk of being struck by lightning.
Future expeditions to the south of Italy may consider bringing a large and hungry team to eat through the mountains. This would be fairly time-consuming. Alternately, a targeted program of cross-breeding between the Dubai supercamels and the native wasps (Vespas Piaggius) to create a flying beast of burden would enable easy passage over the mountains.
