Friday we arrived in Naples and spent the day seeing the city, and eating along the waterfront which was amazing.
Saturday was Capri, which was the best day by far. We went across on a hydrofoil in the morning and spent the day wandering around the island trying to catch all the scenic views. We visited the Blue cave which you take a tiny little rowboat into a 3 foot hole, where the sun reflects through the water to make an entirely blue inside. We ate lunch at a cool little cafe with a glass wall overlooking the port, and then we stumbled onto the gardens of Augustus, which was INCREDIBLE! Words can barely describe how pretty this place is, so I will let the pictures do most of the talking. I can say that this island is the most pristine image of Italian culture I have come across yet, and Florence was great, so thats saying something.
Sunday was Vesuvius and the town of Ercolano. We road a tiny little bus up to the top of the mountain, which one of the "seats" was a chair just sitting in the van.... which was sketchy at best. We had to hike with walking sticks up to the top, and walked around the rim of the volcano. A long hike, but very worth it.
and finally the pictures at Capri....
