... just got that. Does it?) Anyway, that's my favorite kind of mozzarella. And it said it had pomodorini -- little tomatoes. I was psyched. This was for sure going to be the best pizza yet. But then it arived. And it didn't have any sauce. I was so bummed. I kept swearing. Out loud. The waiter told me a side of pizza sauce would be cold so I just sucked it up. <br><br>Until.<br><br>I took a moment.<br><br>I said to myself, "Josie, a margherita pizza is 3 euro. You love pizza. This is ...

... not like a modern city where you can tell someone to turn left at the blue house with the white car out front. It would be like saying turn left at the ruined house with 19 remaining bricks. Oh Josie, you're losing your audience, what the heck are you talking about? MY POINT: Pompei is a big, ruined city that is hard to navigate without a guide. <br><br>I took a ton of photos and have added captions to help explain what you're looking ...

... the maniac behind the wheel were enough to make you feel nautious. Sophie's parents had rented a villa in the heard of the village, with amazing patios and views of the sea. From Positano we did a couple of day trips to Capri, a small island about a 35 minute ferry ride of the coast and a trip to Pompeii to the ancient Roman ruins ...

... umbrella and raincoat got soaked through to our underwear! Next day it rained hard too but did not mind a lazy day with no sightseeing. The city of Naples has a few nice areas but is a really dirty city and one day of sightseeing was plenty. Seeing Naples and Mt. Vesuvius from a distance is the best way to see them but south of Naples and the Almafi coast is not to be missed.

... as we depart and leave the Bay of Naples, we sail south through the Messina Straits around the toe of Italy toward the Greek Island of Mykonos. But we don't arrive there until October 1st, so that means we enjoy a relaxing day at sea! So far, the weather has been fantastic! Very warm temperatures and little to no cloud! Hope it continues! Se ya tomorrow! Ciao! Rick &amp; Elsie!<br><br>

... Job" ride through the undulating, hilly, cobblestone streets of Naples. After a 15 minute high impact joyride, which traditionally should have taken at least 30 minutes, complete with bumps and perpendicular swerves, we arrived to his neighborhood near Piazza Amedeo (Amadeus Square). He then quickly told me and Luna in Italian to jump out of the car and get into a taxi that was already parked in front of us. So far, this precipitous chain of events had ...

We realised it would be pretty hard to top Rome but were quite excited to be heading south to somewhere less touristy and that is known as the birthplace of pizza. However, it trned out to be a pretty disappointing city. The freezing weather didn't help and neither did the fact that we couldn't go out at night because its not exactly the safest city. Still, there were some highlights. Firstly ...

... area and times. Actually quite a lot of it had more than an arousing purpose - often the objects or artwork was used to portray wealth or in hopes of wealth and fertility in an economic sense, especially for shopkeepers. Because it can be a little awkward though, you basically can't go in if you're under 14 w/o being supervised. Goodbye huge giggly obnoxious school groups. ahhh some peace and quiet finally ...

... Gorge, overlooking old churches and monostaries. A village dog followed us out for two hours, but proceeded home once we started back along the bottom of the gorge. Luckily for us it started to downpour, so we slipped and slid along the rocky bottom of a dried up river. A nice cup of hot chocolate soothed our cold bodies when we made it back. Believe it or not, we also ran a couple times while we were there! One evening we ran for an hour along the ...
