9:12 train to Salerno

Is that where the cookies come from?
I left the room at about 8:30, since I was all packed and there was nothing else to do. Again, thank goodness for elevators! My first challenge was getting out of the courtyard. I knew there was a button somewhere, but hadn't figured it out, so I'd been using the key. Luckily, someone was there to push the button. It was by the stairs, about 20 feet away!

Since I had time, I took a small detour to look at the castle (palace?) It is huge! I'm sorry I didn't get to tour it, maybe next time. It is also across the street from the train station.

I stopped for a real espresso at the station. Then I made my way to "binario" 5. Again, thank goodness for elevators! It is unusual that they work, or that they have them at all in the stations. My train was already there, but I asked someone to be sure, since it was 8:58 and I didn't want to get on the wrong train!

We left at 9:15. I have a somewhat tight connection, but it should be okay!Leia mais
