Awaking with the look on the sea and plans to arrive in Napoli. We have pizza and croissant with “cream” for breakfast at the local bakery (we gained weight a lot, you’ll not recognize us) and armed with enthusiasm we are going to search train station.

Today is finally the day of rest for our legs! We boarded to the train for Pompeii, because we wanted to spend some time there and after that to go to the Napoli with bikes.

HOWEVER, after one of the transfers, I accidentally asked where is the train for Napoli instead of Pompeii, and so around 13h we were at the rainy Napoli. A bunch of spent time at the biiiig station, and finally our platform. I entered the wrong train again, but this time controller returns me (because he knew I am in the wrong one). The next one was the right one. Besides us the train entered 200 people more and we taught we will suffocate until it started to move. On the half way we started to breathe and to sing also. Family - the company of Italian Gypsies switched on the radio and from the speaker sang Enrique Iglesias with his hit “Bailando” which, by our estimation, arrived just this summer in Italy ( we can hear it basically from every coffee shop, camp, restaurant, phone..). We got back to Pompeii and we found the camp.

Ready for digging antique ruins, we were welcomed with no-no discount for noncitizens of EU and (at the moment, for us) inaccessible price of 30€ per person. So we visited only the non-antique part of this city. Ant the Carrefour market. We have about two more weeks of vacation, so we taught to make plan for visiting the other cities. It showed that respecting the plans is not our thing.

We know for sure that we will wake up here in the morning and that after that we will go to some nice beach by train. The rest you can read in our next reporting. Ciao!
