I
just returned by train from Naples. It is 9:30 p.m. here, so I am about ready to hit the sack.
We saw Mount Vesuvius and toured Pompeii yesterday, which is really something to see. We spent the night at a four-star hotel, and we just messed around Naples dodging the traffic and enduring the rotten driving of the taxi drivers.
There was garbage in the streets, but it didn't stink as much as expected.
I will probably post more about the trip in the coming days, if I am still alive.
