Naples, Italy

I almost rented a car for Naples since where we wanted to go was quite a ways from the port, I'm glad I opted for a local driver instead! Driving in the city of Naples itself was completely out of control! Typically we think of New York driving being crazy, this place was 10 times worse. In the city there were basically no lanes at all, people just drive where they felt like it. The streets may have had lines to form 4 lanes, but cars were 6 across, just plowing their way through traffic! Our first stop was the ancient ruins of Pompeii. This was the city that was infamously frozen in time after being buried by the ash from the eruption of Mount Vesuvius The second and third picture are views of Mount Vesuvius from within Pompeii. It's a very ominous figure that appears to be looming over it's victim from decades befor. After spending the morning wandering the streets of Pomeii we headed south to the Amalfi coast. The Almafi coast is covered in small towns embedded into the cliffs, and lemon fields lining the hills. The lemons from this place were the size of a babies head, no joke! The coast is amzing, it's no wonder the rich and famous vacation here.
