Day 4 of Best of Italy Tour

---

We were sad to leave Rome, but excited to start the 'travelling' part of our tour. We headed south from Rome via Monte Cassino to Pompeii - what an amazing city frozen in time. It was extrememly hot (and some of the yanks whinged like there was something our guide could do!) but we really enjoyed it. We saw some bars (with wine holders), some residential homes (with gardens and everything) and then Luke's favourite - the red light district - complete with beds and even the girls 'menus' written above their rooms!

From Pompeii, we continued on to Sorrento for 2 nights.

We just loved Sorrento so much - so laid back, yet so charming. We joined an optional tour and had a seafood dinner in a restaurant right on the water - literally - suspended above the water like a jetty.

The following day we had some free time in Sorrento, so went searching for the Foreigners Club. Linda & Tom you were right - what an amazing view!!

After lunch, we jetted over to the Isle of Capri - we thought we loved Sorrento until we arrived at Capri!! We cruised around the Island - ducking into all the caves - and even had time for a swim in the ocean.

We caught a cable car / train to the top of the mountain - and the view was breath taking.

We are now in Assissi - have visited St Francis' Basillica - even older than the Sistine Chapel!!

And now off for dinner at the hotel - overlooking Umbria.

PS - Luke is shitty that Penrith got the wooden spoon.
