Well, Naples was horrible. But Pompeii was amazing!
Naples public transport was awful. The same route bus no matter which end point it is going to is labeled with one name. So we got on a bus labeled where we wanted to go, the right route number.. and it took us in the opposite direction! How frustrating! It ended up taking us way to long to get back to our hostel. And there was a garbage strike going on, so the city stunk, and there were stray dogs everywhere.. what a bummer.
but... Pompeii! wow. It was really cool. There were mosaics and art work still intact! After all these years!
I learned things too, I found out that a major earthquake had hit in 62 A.D. (just 17 years before the volcano.) So, Pompeii was actually still in the process of rebuilding when the volcano hit.
There is not much else you can say, it was amazing to walk around and see all the ruins. I also saw the plaster casts of the bodies they found. pretty crazy.
welp, off to Venice!
