... the best pizza you ever have had and ever will have. This is your last day in Italy. You came back to Naples specifically to eat at this pizzeria."<br><br>Yep, I ordered a second pizza. The waiter asked if I wanted him to make it a small margherita. I said, "Nah." literally while I had a fork raised carrying a bite from my prima pizza. I ate both of those pizzas and I was so happy. I had also had a hefty beer. Needless to say I slept the entire train ride from Naples to Rome.<br>

... See ya. He immediately came over to me and said, "Wait, wait. If you pay 15euro we can start now." Uh, no. "Okay, okay, c'mon, let's go. We'll get started now." Oh yeah. Look at me working my consumer power.<br><br>I'm glad that I opted for the guide. Pompei/ii really is a city. It's not just a little archeological site closed in by a fence, it's a full on city with neighborhoods and roads and everything. But because it's all ruins it ...

... the town decimated but preserved from Mt. Vesuvius erupting in the first century. Throughout the week, we had the pleasure of being wined and dined by Sophie&#8217;s parents and we had some amazing food, the seafood was stellar.<br><br>Positano Pictures<br>http://picasaweb.google.com /Jonny.D.Lawrence/20091030Positano?auth key ...

... advice on where to go in the area. Good location to go north (to Naples and Pompeii) and south to Positano and Almafi (which is a hair raising but spectacular drive). We also took the boat to Capri which is a beautiful island and especially loved the Blue Grotto. First time we ran into some rain and we were at Pompeii for about 2 hours before it started raining .. even ...

... taking one of those CitySightseeing Buses. The same kind we took in Barcelona where passengers were able to hop on and hop off at any stop. <br><br>We were warned about the traffic in Naples and that caution was needed when crossing any street. Although we thought the traffic hectic, cars had no choice but to yield when groups of people were crossing the street. So, we waited for the locals ...

... on the bus and went to downtown Sorrento. Even though we had just eaten all of those antipasti, we knew we had to have a pizza from the Napoli region. We we made our way to a pizzeria that was recommended to us by the guidebook. I'm so glad we did! Yum!<br><br><br><br>This was true pizza. Crispy flat bread, gorgeous bubbling cheese...what more could you ask for? We had a carafe of wine to make the meal complete and just enjoyed life.<br><br><br><br>After ...

... som 'sigarettmannen' i X-files åpenbart tilhører, fatter de avgjørende beslutninger om nasjoners skjebne på slike steder, over en cocktail. Jeg tok i døren, åpnet den, ble møtt av en bred mann, italiener, mørkt kledd. "Aspetta." Mannen ransaket meg lett, brukte håndholdt metalldetektor. Jeg holdt posen min åpen, slik at han ikke skulle merke minikameraet teipet innenfor plasthåndtaket. "Lui é fuori, nel terrazzo." Behørig undersøkt og godkjent, slapp jeg videre ...

... now. They are not on strike though so I dont know, maybe they clean only when they feel like it? Anyway I dont have much more to say about Naples, just that we are really looking forward to London. Rachel has promised to do a pub crawl with me so l Look Out London!!! Hopefully I can get a hold of my friend there and meet up with her too:)

... looked like 2,000 years ago. It was truly amazing that the city was so well preserved. Entire homes, streets, swimming pools, tombs, mosaics, large pots and wall painted were all recovered, first rediscovered in 1748. You could still see ruts in the stone roads, where years of horse-drawn carts had passed over 2,000 years ago. Pompeii was a ...

It was so hot. You need to have at least a day to see Pompeii and early morning or late afternoon would be best to visit. Our guide tried to avoid the busier areas and therefore we didn't get to see alot that I wanted and when we had free time, it was just too hot (no shade) and I was about to faint. It is was a bit eery, hard to imagine a whole town buried beneath the ash of the Volcano. It was a shame to see many of the relics of Pompeii locked in ...
