Italy (Naples, Pompei, Vesuvius)

Welcome to Naples
Where clothes lines and motor scooters fill the narrow alleys
Lots of people and scooters
Where the air is fuill of life
The fruits and vegetables are cheap and tasty
And so is the pizza
The tailor, me, and my new suit
The australian hostel gang
A common view for travelers
Another common and much nicer view
The Naples waterfront
Where we caught a ferry to the island of Capri
Another common travel scene
Welcome to Capri
The gang hold a pose before tearing up the little island
Capri attracts bookoo tourists
Capri is simply beautiful
It reminds me alot of Catalina
We spent the entire day just strolling
And took the late ferry home
Silly moment, don't ask...
Waiting for the broken train to Pompei
Welcome to Pompei
This recently discovered town was covered in volcanic ash thousands of years ago
Today it is just a bunch of ruins
with the still active Mt. Vesuvius looming in the background
Assymetric theater pose
Walking through the streets is kinda eerie
Most of the buildings were destroyed over time
Horsetails and church
A nearby park and church
Walking to the stadium
Where they used to hold gladiator games
A well preserved painting at Herculion
Which sits at the very base of Mt. Vesuvious
Welcome to Mt. Vesuvious, the active volcano that took out both Pompei and Herculion
Looking down on the Pompei gulf
'Don't slip'
This volcano is due to erupt any day now
Smoke eminates from the crater walls
