Day 7, Naples, Italy – 8am – 6pm

If there could be three words that describe Naples to me, it would be traffic, traffic and hmmm….. traffic.

I really do love Italy, the people, the food, the architecture the history, the climate, but that damn traffic really gets me down. I watched people crossing the street at pedestrian crossings with their eyes closed! Now that’s something, also a lot of Italian scooter riders must be colour blind, because they thing red is green.

Amanda did ask me to take her to the shops, but when she saw the traffic, she said we should opt for an open top buss tour instead, see, every cloud has a silver lining.

These tours really are good value for money. You can hop on and off as often as you wish and there are three different routes to choose from, we chose the city route, which the guide said should take 1 hour. Guess what, with the traffic, it too just over 2.

I think next time we go to Naples we will get off the ship a little earlier and try to do more, I don’t think we did this city justice by sitting on a bus for 2 hours.

Tomorrow is another relaxing day at sea, before we reach our final destination. Palma in Majorca.
