Naples, Italy - Friday 23 June

Got up and walked to the port, as we wanted to see where we will catch the ferry from tomorrow. Then walked aimlessly to see some sights. It's hot.  


This interesting looking castle was right near the port. Castel Nuovo first erected in 1279...


It's a bit hazy today.


Piazza del Plebiscito was nearby...


Stopped here for a coffee and water...




Walking through the streets...


We walked up the hill and did a tour of the Aqua Augusta, the Roman aqueducts. It was great.


The pregnant lady on the tour declined to go through this section...


Graffiti in the aqueducts...


These streamers were everywhere, as Napoli had recenty won the Italian cup (or something)...


After the aqueduct tour, we kept walking through the old town.


Galleria Umberto, just a shoppng centre...


We are pretty tired and hot now. Found a restaurant and stopped for lunch.



Headed back to the apartment for a rest.


That night we headed to a gelato place that Alex had researched.


Naples Cathedral...



Stopped for dinner at a place called Spacca...


The ravioli was great...


And the staple salad, caprese...


Views from our balcony...

Melbourne - June 2024

Had to go to Melbourne for work. Flew on the Monday morning and straight to the office. After work I checked in to Voco and crossed Lonsdale...
