Naples from too high up to think about
Risked life and limb to stop on the climb for this photo - none could do justice to the magnificence of the view however Wow! Don't make this trip at night or when you are tired or intoxicated! It is crazy, wild, gorgeous, crazy crazy! cars are not designed to have side mirrors when they pass within a hairs breadth of each other, walls and precipices either side. From Naples (Napoli) onwards the roads soared above the coast, scaling the volcanic mountains (remember Pompeii), descending into tortuous turns and inhabited by crazy Italian drivers! What a start to first day driving on the wrong side of the road.
Trip took us from 12:30 until 7 pm! (Micheal says - Anna the amazing) -it was like driving through a crazy Walt Disney extravaganza. We will take our time exploring this amazing cliff top world and post photos from the daylight hours tomorrow. We have 5 glorious days booked in this wonderland - maybe we will stay another week ??
