I have to say that Ev and I had the most insane bus ride! We were jam packed onto this bus with our luggage in tow and people were pushing us every which way, it was just like China! Guide books recommended we stay away from public transit due to the high rate of pick pickets. But we figured it was an adventure. We must have looked hilarious to the locals though... two Asian girls with a death grip on their purses (though we both wear money belts inside) and trying to stay standing and figure out which stop to get off at.


Have I told you I love coffee?

You can't tell from the picture but it was very windy!!


The lovely sardine can-esque feel of our compartment on the sleeper train. Yes, it was as small as it looks and my bed had sand in the sheets. Getting ready for bed was a bit of a challenge since the space only allowed standing room for one person. Surprisingly, I slept thru most of the 8 hour ride from CT to Naples.

Does this not remind you of Vancouver?

We saw some Italians playing Baci ball right next to the walkway.

Unfortunately I woke up on my first day here with the WORST neckpain I've ever experienced. I don't know what it was but tears were welling up every time I tried to move. Ev had to literally roll me out of bed that morning. I couldn't do anything that day, so I bought myself a bottle of white and sat my ass down right by the water, sunbathing. Yup, the ENTIRE DAY.
