Different
This is a top pick! ... here you have the feeling you could be, and should be, somewhere else. Somewhere, well... 'different'. Naples has everything we'd experienced in Italy so far - traffic, noise, people, dirt, graffiti - just here everything was exaggerated exponentially. ...

Remember the back streets of Naples.
... in the moon shadow. I wished the captain would stop the ship so we could call in and explore the island, but we sailed on by. Oh well, I’m hoping we’ll get that chance when we’re back down in Sorrento and the picturesque Bay of ...
Mt Vesuvius, Pompeii and Napoli madness
They say that no other location in Italy instills so much passion amongst the Italian people as naples - the birthplace of pizza, Sophia Loren, and the best coffee in Italy. It's hard to understand completely this 'passion' without actually seiing the ...

Naples & Pompei
... far. About 5 minutes later, our train stopped, and we had to wait exactly one hour for the next to arrive. Then we arrived in Naples, which I can see why a lot of people don't like it, as there is rubbish everywhere and it is kind of chaotic. But it also ...

Rome to Naples

Triple Nipples.
... felt like a hobbit climbing mount doom! So it wasn’t so bad. The view at the top was epic, looking right out over Naples and the ocean, dotted with islands. The day was so clear and bright. Looking into the deep crater was very impressive, in some ...
the mafia does exist
... I will be forced to give up drinking water as it is too expensive. And the pizza, of course is to die for. Naples apparently "invented" Margherita pizza, there is some dispute over this fact. Either way, the stuff they are serving is excellent! And ...
random thoughts...
