Roma to Napoli

We arrived at Roma Termini in good time for our train trip to Napoli, scheduled to depart at 1020. The departure board at 1010 didn't give any indication of the platform we needed to go to! This is with hundreds of people all wanting help but having no one to ask! We finally got onboard and settled in for a very fast train trip (300 km/hr) to Napoli.
A taxi from Napoli Centrale to our very luxurious accommodation in a very shabby part of Naples!
We were early so left our bags and went for a coffee at a very, very delicious looking patisserie not far from here. We will return!
We found a supermarket and decided to buy food for tonight rather than go out. We've been warned twice since we arrived that we need to be very careful in Napoli. Pick pockets rife apparently. This area doesn't give us good vibes to be honest.
Today has been our most unproductive day since we began this journey 3 weeks ago. My (Kerrie's) knee is painful so a rest afternoon has been good. No stairs here, thankfully!
Tomorrow we get back in the tourist saddle and train to Ercolano where we are doing an archaeological guided tour of the ruin of Herculaneum.Leggi altro
