Farewell Amsterdam, Buon Giorno Naples

We flew from Amsterdam to Naples today, and to our minds, the cities couldn’t be more different. We had such a great time with Mike & Teresa, living temporarily in their neighborhood, with local markets, bakeries and cheese shops. Now we’re in the heart of the bustling downtown area of Naples. It’s like staying on Market Street of San Francisco—except without the homeless, and here the buildings are older, the traffic is noisier, and the shops are a bit more upscale.

Still, it’s a good launching point for for trips to the archaeological sites of Pompeii and others we’re planning on visiting.Läs mer
