We arrived in Napoli last night and had our first true Italian experience in the city. We had a taste of Italy at a local pizzeria called Tratorria Pizzeria. Their version of pizza is very different from the states and was quite excellent. It was much lighter and more flavorful.
Today we took the train to Pompei and explored the ruins. Pompei was enormous! We were both amazed and agreed that in the three hours that we toured the site we could easily have spent another day. Lenette and my favorite parts were the mosaic tile floors which were very intricate and detailed the ornate craftmanship of that time period.
We are now in Sapri, a beautiful coastal town in Southern Italy. This is a place were many Italians vacation. We are pleased to be experiencing Italy from a locals perspective, without the tourist feel.
Caio.
