... area. Well, since I had been told it existed I went in with more confidence. Indeed. It was the LARGEST seating area of any of the pizza contestants. There was a small area next to the kitchen that was off a small entry way -- hidden from the street. Then upstairs there were at least 4 rooms with simple chairs and tables. Just waiting to be the lucky support of some delicious pizza.<br><br>I ordered the Buffala pizza. Mozzarella di Buffala (HEY! Does that mean from Buffalo milk ...

... 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 ...

From Rome we headed south to Positano. Once in Sorento we hired a cab to take us the rest away the way, along a very narrow winding road about 150 meters above the sea. For this driver the lines dividing the highway were merely suggestions and blind corners ************cern. The views were spectacular, however the cliff edge road ...

... 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 ...

... we entered a small grocer and purchased some wine to take back and enjoy in our cabin. We found that a bottle of wine cost 2 to 7 euros, which was a lot cheaper than a bottle of Italian Chianti or French Bordeaux at $35-40 USD in the dining room. Although they were good, they weren't unique! As a practice, we've always enjoyed drinking locally made wines wherever we've traveled. <br><br ...

... Luigi picked up his tempo, informing me that we all needed to get to the port to go by ferry to the island of Capri for a party. "Scusa?! (Excuse me?)," I asked. Barely having slept at all on the plane thanks to the frequent restroom trips of a Jordanian passenger beside me, I was half-dazed, excited, exhausted, and in need of washing up. Luigi quickly threw my luggage in his car, and then like a madman, he took us on a "Bourne Supremacy" or "The ...

... like a small town inside. The whole trip Neill has been raving about getting a pizza in Naples, the heart of pizza territory, so we went to a pizzeria. The pizzas were terrible - sloppy and tasteless. Neill got so ****** off that he left the pizza and told the waiter where to go. He hardly spoke for the rest of the time in Naples. We tried a second pizzeria and that was kinda the same which didn't help!

... the country. And they have all the cool stuff from Pompeii, Ercolano, and the Vesuvius area, including the pottery, jewelry, coins, bronze work, and mosaics from there, as well as other parts of the country and different time periods. They also have of course (God love them) the Cabanetto Segretto or something like that - the secret cabinet, or room. There you find all the smutty mosaics and artefacts from the ...

... we headed south to a small town called Kardamili. This place was awesome. It had the laid back feel that Nafplio had, along with numerous walking trails along a steep gorge. We stayed in a comfortable little hostel and even washed are laundry by hand in the backyard! March 25th was Greece Independence Day, so we watched the children of the town perform dances and walk down the street in a small parade. Other days were spent walking along the top of a ...
