"See Naples and die!"
Feb. 7th, 2013 10:16 pmI haven't quite finished posting about our adventures in Naples and I don't think I will.
I should write about the disappointing and outrageously expensive cup of tea in the historic Gran Caffè Gambrinus once upon a time frequented by the intelligentsia (including a disgraced Oscar Wilde) or about the fabulous tiled cloisters of Santa Chiara and the very eager guy working in the shop who took customer service to quite a different level, but I'm going to conclude the series of posts about Naples with a few of my favourite photos, that haven't appeared on here yet.












Perhaps not surprisingly Naples was one of the very few places where Adrian at some point didn't exclaim "I want to live here!".
If you can look beyond the ugly (and there's plenty: mindless graffiti, ubiquitous dog poo, general dirtiness, mad traffic), you may enjoy it but it's not a relaxing place, you always have to be alert.
It is certainly worth visiting but if you have never been to Italy, don't go to Naples first or you may never go back! lol
