The city that evokes strong opinions…I love it, mostly, and this was my third visit to chaotic messy fascinating lovable Napoli. The Veiled Christ, the Underground tour, the Bay, both castles and the San Martino museum / monastery are all intersting, but my favorite thing to do is people/ traffic watch. Entire families on Vespas, and someone is usually carrying a box of pastry, one young man riding his Vespa had a large German Shepherd sprawled across his lap, the exquisite body language used in everyday conversation, and everyone from seniors to kids out at night, seniors strolling, kids playing soccer, familles having dinner..real sense of old school community.
Yeah, it’s noisy, beat- up and unrefined, but it sure is fun.
Tip: day trip to the Royal Palace and Gardens of Caserta. About an hour by train ir bus. We hired a guide and spent a peaceful afternoon there. It’s quite a place.
