Cruise - Naples

Still relatively tired from Rome, we didn't do anything TOO exciting in Naples. Naples was one of Joel's favorite places. It was very much like NYC - Busy City. This is one of the fashion districts of the world. I wish that I would have taken pictures of the alley ways with HUNDREDS of illegal vendors. Needless to say, we did most of our shopping here. Naples was nice. I liked it okay - it was a little too dirty for me, but there you go.

Things we learned:

1. America may be obese, but Italy SMELLS!

2. Downside of men in Italy wearing tight pants = everyone has a crack

3. If you see a Nazi symbol painted on a nearby wall, that may be a sign that you've gone too far into the city...(I wish I took a picture of it, but I got a little frightened and bolted..)

4. The young women here are gorgeous, but then they all have to put a cigarette in their mouths. No wonder people from foreign countries don't smile in pictures - they've all smoked since they were teens!

5. If they want 50 Euro for the fake Prada bag, just walk away. The guy two stalls down is selling it for 15.

6. Never watch the "family friendly" magic show on the boat. I have never seen so many thongs in my life. These people who established the show as "family friendly" must not have families.

7. Never order any beverages to be sent to your room on a Carnival cruise. Even though you have a beverage package, they still charge you 4 dollars to have it sent to your room.

8. Siesta still exists in parts of the world.

9. We never knew that formal night also meant naked night.

10. People in Italy are somewhat smart people - they actually wear helmets. I actually think that they are a fashion statement here.




So, funny story to go with this pharmacy. I saw these kind of pharmacies ALL OVER THE PLACE. I was looking at these pictures last night and I said that second word out loud - omeopatia..."Joel, that kind of sounds like homeopathic..." Joel: "it is. I just didn't want to tell you then because I didn't want you upset on the trip" BAHAHAHA! He is so cute. He knows me so well... :)


Feel of the Streets

"yeah, I'll have some swordfish, please" *whack*

Guess he didn't want his car stolen...
