Naples!

The city we will visit second on our trip is Napoli! The home of pizza (although their pizza is very different than what we know here), where if you order a pepperoni pizza you'll get a pizza with peppers on it. We've also been told that pickpockets are excellent in Naples, so we all plan to keep our wallets close to our hearts.

We'll be doing more than just eating pizza however, we plan to spend a day on the Island of Capri and visit the ruins of Pompeii.

Capri will be our first time at the beach and we have our sunscreen ready! We will be taking a hydrofoil out to the island, they look like boats on skis! The video is from a hydrofoil on Lake Como in Italy, we might all get the funny tummy feeling from this ride!

 

We will also be visiting the ruins of Pompeii, I am very excited about this. I have often heard the stories and seen the pictures of the devastation caused by Mt. Vesuvius,  I can only imagine the power in a place like that. It should be a great learning experience for all of us.

We are continuing our tour of the country staying at a neat little bed and breakfast in a historic part of the city: B & B Napoli Centro Storico
