Naples

Travel day for the most part. With our plane leaving around midday from Nice and arriving into Naples around 1.30.

Once we were back on the ground we made our way to our hotel. It was incredibly hot, some of the signs outside the pharmacies were saying 38 degrees. A lot of stone and concrete in Naples and it felt like the heat was coming from all around us. Thoroughly dripping we made it to our hotel room where we had a short rest and a change of clothes before braving the heat again.

For dinner we made our way to "L'antica Pizzeria da Michele" which was made famous by the movie "Eat, Pray, Love". There were only 3 flavour options, each a different variation of tomato, herbs and cheese, and a fourth option which was a combination of two flavours, and they were all priced at 5.50eur. With a plethora of Michelin and other awards posted to the front door, wet knew we were in for something special.

We ordered a pizza each and washed it down with a beer. Feeling like we needed to walk off some of the food, we began wandering home. We then realised we were actually in Italy now and hadn't had a gelato today, so we made a quick pit stop for gelato. It was about 9pm by now, and the pharmacy signs were still reading 34 degrees...Weiterlesen
