You should write their tourist brochures.Leaving Naples wasn’t difficult; I honestly didn’t care for it much at all. It was loud, busy, and incredibly dirty.
I'll keep this in mind if I ever get over there.If I was to do the planning and traveling all over again, I’d use Sorrento as a “homebase” for both Pompeii and the Amalfi Coast, add Herculaneum, and skip Naples altogether. It just wasn’t my cup of tea.
Doubtful... but you never know.
mmmm... who doesn't love a good puff pastry?
Saw that (at the bottom of this post). Incredible colours!This is a short and sweet post because it’s been an incredibly wonderful day filled with the palette of Autumn in the Appalachians (Red River Gorge)
I do not know.and Miguel’s Pizza (IYKYK)
Just did one of those a couple days ago. 12s are long.and I picked up a 12-hour shift in the morning.
Goodbye Vesuvius, rest quietly.
153kmh... not bad.They are fast, hence the blur in so many of my photos.
<sigh> Never enough time, is there.Every little bit, we’d see another hillside village of whitewashed homes resembling a Lego set creation. I wished we’d had time to hop off the train and explore each one.
Each station was home to a few train cars meant for other purposes, which gave me constant amusement. They are a bit reminiscent of something out of a Richard Scarry children’s book, and I giggled at that a bit.
no... no, no, no...even I was now hankering for some mediocre, but predictable “American” food.
Noooo...there’s a Mickey D’s right across the massive Rome Centralia
Ah well. When in Rome?
I mean it. This was probably my favorite room we stayed in the whole trip, except maybe a couple of them in Tuscany.
My favourite room... except for the one in Tuscany. No, two in Tuscany. And that one in Venice. Oh, and the one in...
Love that ceiling.
How cool is that!!My mouth nearly fell onto the ground when the owner said he had a surprise for us. He turned on a light switch and pushed aside a throw rug. Right there in the middle of the floor was a sunken “museum” filled with treasure’s he’d found while excavating for his remodel. RIGHT THERE!!! Pottery, coins, old pipe, etc….
Really gorgeous.I'll leave you with a few of my favorite shots from my day in the Heart of Appalachia.
