Home of the Pizza

---

After a relaxing 12 hour ferry ride, our early morning arrival on the mainland ensured we could set about discovering the spent up energy that Naples promises. However, we would quickly learn that without the Pompei draw card Naples would boast little more than being a seaside harbor that serves really good pizza...

Highs
1. Walking through the remains of a city that was cast in Volcanic rock in 79 AD, and then rediscovered in the 16th Century. Millions of tourists every year visit this phenomenon, today I was one of them.
2. devouring a famously good pizza (or Calzone - I had no idea what I was ordering) which turned out to be one of the better meals I have ever had.

Lows
1. Not that a city should be judged on its ability to serve up some form of nightlife, but our search for any sort of hotspot in Naples fell on deaf ears and thirsty tongues.
