Naples & Pompeii (Thursday)

We left very early again on Thursday and after lots of struggles with trains, wrong trains, long bus rides, old taxi that was about to fall apart, bartering, and wrong stops, we finally made it to Pompeii! Then we got lost again while we were in the city, but this time it was for our benefit! We somehow got into an area of Pompeii that has been closed for a considerable amount of time. It was beautifully overgrown, it was extremely neat to walk through, but after being drenched in sweat, and minds and bodies just about to collapse, we finally found the exit, having to climb through fences to get out!! We took the train to Naples and spent a few more hours there before heading back to Rome.


Another one of the countless funny moments we have had..



Sorry, no matter what i do this picture will not turn!!
