Walking all day in Naples

As soon as I got off the ship at Naples, I took a ferry all the way to Sorrento Penninsula. Climbed multiple steps again to the top and walk the streets.


Morning at Naples Port

Streets of Sorrento

Not a whole lot there...so onto a train to Pompeii.


Ruins of Pompeii...it's acres and acres of this

At Pompeii, the ruins were quite interesting. I was most taken by the thought behind the construction of the baths (one of the site that is mostly intact). It is amazing what engineers can think of back then. I spent a couple of hours there and could have spent another two more, but the ship was to leave fairly soon. So, onto the train, and back to Naples.

There was not a whole lot there (and there was not enough time to go to the Naples National Archaeological Museum) and most of the store fronts were closed because it was Sunday. So, I got back onto the ship fairly quickly, since I have to pack (the cruise docks back at Civitavecchia tomorrow early morning).


Would have hopped onto that bus if there were things to see in Naples...btw, castle is closed for renovation
