Amalfi Miniature
We saw quite a few miniature villages by the side of highways in this region. This is the only one we could walk up to and appreciate its details.

Fountain of Pompeii
Roman aqueducts brought water to Pompeii for public use at many fountains. This one on Via dell’ Abbondanza is decorated with a relief of the head of Fortuna and her horn of plenty.
Along this street is the side of Eumachia’s Building. Continuing down the street brought us to the forum and the front of the building.

Pompeii Public Bath
The public bath in Pompeii is the best preserved Roman bath in the world.
This is the tepidarium where bathers are rubbed down in oil, after they took the cold bath in the
frigidarium.

Andiamo!
At the Marina Grande, while Freddy, our tour director was still counting, Sophia, our enthusiastic local guide waved us forward towards our buses.
“Andiamo” means “let’s go” in Italian. The first time I heard it, I thought she was calling someone “auntie 阿母”.
After getting off the buses at the waterfront, we learned about the maritime history of Amalfi before walking inland to its town square. 
After landing on Marina Grande, we split into two buses that can each carry 25 persons. Any larger vehicles would not be able to negotiate the narrow mountain roads on Capri Island.
