Mh Design Hotel Naples

Nous avons pris l'autobus publique pour atteindre le sommet du vesus, le volcan n'a pas tellement a offrir, mais la vue sur la bay est vraiment belle. Ensuite, nous avons visités les ruines d'Herculaneom. Une autre ville disparue sous l'eruption du vesus il y a pres de 2000 ans. il y a encore beaucoup de travail d'archeologie en cours, mais on peut voir que la ville est meiux conserver, il y a meme des batiments de 2 et 3 etages et des pieces de bois qui ont traversé le temps !

... TravelPod" is a complete pain in the a@$ to use. For our 2010 "Radical Sabbatical" trip to Asia, I'm switching to another web service.

But, I've promised myself that I'll update this blog before we leave Naples...

Ola Kala: simply, OK (in Greek). No time for lots of flap.....we're on the go. The Vatican Museums await us (and we can hardly wait to do more walking!). Enjoy the pictures and we'll fill you in on the adventure next time I make the time to sit and gab.

We're still having a grand time!!!!!

... half of the ruins, but saw some really amzing stuff.
Pity we couldn't get into the large arena as it was blocked off and looked really impressive from what we could see from the outside.

Found a really cool red leather satchel to replace my old grey nylon one that has given me 9or10 years of service.
Florentine leather - so nice...
Also went to get 1 more tripe roll before leaving town and discovered they had beef too so tried one of them instead. Just as amazing as the tripe one!!!

... cash. I'm sure two of them were doing it as a tax dodge. And the third, I don't know. Maybe it was an illegal hostel place. Some places ask for your passport for ID, some don't. Some Internet Cafe's ask (they have to by law) and some don't. (This one I'm in now, run by Chinese, doesn't). Most rooms say non-smoking, but have ash trays. This Internet cafe is non-smoking, but the guy next to me is smoking. The guy running the ...

... island. Afterwards, we took the funicular to the top of the island and met up with Kelsey (little Bobbi's roommate) and Frannie from an SAS trip. We dined on more pizza and then I took off to head back to the ship because I had planned out a trip for myself the following day. I was off to Venice! SAS sincerely recommended that I not attend, especially since it was such a long distance from Naples. Two years earlier after backpacking with Evan through ...

... very skillful driving, they got us down the narrow lane and to the farm. Although a small farm (just a few acres), the family-operated (for at least 4 generations) farm produces olives, olive oil, wine, cheese, lemons, and limoncello (liquor made from lemons). We got to sample a bit of everything, including the limoncello (very good, BTW). The cheeses were mozzarella and another kind which is made in little baskets. They showed ...

... Azzuro (Blue Grotto). From outside, it looked like a little hole in the wall of a massive cliff. As soon as the man in the little row boat took us inside the water under us started glowing bright blue. The water was so warm I was tempted to jump in, but the voice of reason said she wouldn't help me back into the boat :(. We chilled in Capri for the rest of the day before making our way back to Naples and pack. The next day we woke ...
