Volcano's and buried cities
... you're right on the waterfront it is impossible to see sea or volcano from almost any other point in the city. Within Naples you are engulfed by the traffic which seems to impose more than any other Italian city we visited. Everytime you cross the ...
Greece and Italy!
... a 4 hour bus ride, a two hour wait for the ferry to leave, 13 hours on an overnight ferry, then another 4 hour bus ride to Naples. All is well though, and I'll leave you with the thoughts of some of the best tasting pizza and ice cream in the world! ...
Naples
... for a passing nun and crossed with her, because no-one is going to run over a nun (but they might run over a tourist). but naples has no convienient nuns, and so if you want to cross a road you basically throw yourself in front of the cars and hope that ...
Naples
... since Naples is nearly due west of Loggia (small po dunk town I was in) there aren't any trains that run from there to Naples. So I suffered through the bus ride for a couple hours but I made it eventually, just about dark, and talk about sketchy, the ...
The Aftermath and journey to the city of madness
... as 3 Carabinieri apprehended some variety of criminal and dragged him by the head over to their version of a divvy van. For a city in Italy, Naples certainly had a bit of the 'Marrakeches' about it. And all this on a Sunday night mind you! Fatigue drove ...
Dirty, tasty Napoli

Down in old Napoli ... that's amore
... (one of a human in the foetal position and one of a dog) so that afternoon we decided to head back to Naples to visit the archaeological museum in search of some preserved people but unfortunately the closest cheap thrill we found was an erotic section ...
Pompei, Pasta and Piles of Rubbish
We caught an early morning train from Rome to Naples, arriving in the Mafia's home town around 08:00. Without a map we somehow made it to our accommodation using directions from shop assistants and landmarks of unfinished construction to get us ...
A day in the life of a hostel worker

Last Day in Napoli

The Home of Pizza
... no traffic laws, more mopeds than birds, no sense of garbage clean up, no parking anyway and rain! Despite all of this, Naples still seems to fascinate the two of us and there is definitely much more to come. Our hostel is great and we have no ...
Food, glorious food
... it's all about the beautiful Italian tomatoes...yes I'm eating tomatoes (never liked them in aus). When I ordered my first pizza in Naples, I balked at the sheer size of it. And people balked at me when I suggested sharing a pizza. No, not the done ...
Naples
... we had a nice deck in our room with a view of fireworks. For some reason there always seems to be fireworks going off in Naples morning, noon, and night, but at the time we thought it was a nice coincidence. The next day we searched high and low for ...
Chilling with the Cosanostra in Napoli
... anything (we heard later that another Canadian from Vancouver witnessed a purse snatching attempt from 2 guys on a motorbike). Nevertheless, Naples proved to be interesting and appealing once we were out and about, though the traffic craziness and the ...

Back in Italy
... in to Naples at just after 5pm. I have read and heard many times about the chaos of the traffic and general life in Naples. For some reason, I always thought it was exaggerated. It really isn't. The instant we rolled off the highway into the main streets ...
Telecom Italia/ADSL Service: FINALLY
I can't wait to see Cairo, but at the moment, Naples is the most disorganized and chaotic place I have ever seen. The short version of the story is that after four months, we finally have a working computer AND working internet service at our house. The ...
Ercolano e pizza da Michele
... there was even a bed! An old lady attached herself to me today when she discovered I had an audioguide! Got back to Naples and walked through Piazza Garibaldi for the first time. This area is notorious in Naples as being the roughest and dirtiest part ...

Southern Italian Produce
... . The cups may be tiny but it is like concentrated sweet black gold. My friend Mr. Nello says it's because the water here in Naples is special and that's what makes the coffee so good. Maybe the water makes the produce so good too. The water and the warm ...
Naples
... have ever seen. It defines the term bustling and ,while a little dirty and seedy, is actually a pretty cool place. I arrived in Naples at about 420pm from Rome and again was blown away by the pace that everyone seems to be going. Well, everyone except ...
Da Michele pizza and city day
... said, but I wandered about hoping I’d be a bit more informed about my next day visit to Pompei. I roamed around the streets of Naples and my goal for the evening was to eat at da Michele Pizzeria. For 5.5 euros, I had a gigantic Margherita pizza and ...
Napoli
... not the smoothest ride I have ever been on. It was raining, crowded with school tour groups and dirty from trash everywhere in Naples. We were not too happy to be there, especially when a little kid ran up to Heather who was holding her lunch. ...
