Today was a very eventful day.

It started out early this morning for a trip to Pompeii. I had my breakfast and then headed straight out to the bus to get on as soon as I could because there were a number of buses for this trip and I needed to get back on time or early so I could make my next trip.

I got on the bus that I needed to be on and we got on our way. It was only a 30 minute drive to Pompeii which was nice and our guide's name was Nancy. She told us to call her Mama Nancy. She was nice but I got annoyed with her and wished she would stop talking. We arrived and went straight on to the tour of Pompeii.

The group walked around as she explained different parts of Pompeii and their significance. We got to see houses and markets and bodies. But the best thing that my group got to see was the brothel. It was very interesting because there were Karma Sutra pictures all around the room that the sailors would point at to explain what they wanted from the lady. They beds were made of concrete and that was to keep them from being to comfortable. They men needed to be in and out as fast a possible to keep the business running.

We walked around for about 2 hours and then we had a demonstration at the Cameo factory. Since I had been to the factory before I stayed outside and got my souvenirs and a lemon slush. We relaxed for a bit before getting back on the bus and heading back to the ship.

Luckily we got back earlier thane expected which gave me some time to go and get some food before getting on another bus for my next trip.

I got back down to the bus and boarded for the City Tour and San Carlo Theater.

To describe the San Carlo Theater I have included an excerpt from the trip description. "Begin your walking tour and head to the San Carlo Opera House for a tour of the facilities. During this tour, experience a stunning example of the classic style of theatre space in which Grand Opera developed as a major musical and theatrical form. Observe the special environment provided by multi-tiered, horseshoe-shaped audience seating, and the elaborate stage technology that is capable of producing spectacular visual effects."

It was a pretty cool place to see and was very large and royal looking. Sadly they had just finished a "restoration" and what they meant by that was basically redoing everything including repainting everything. It basically was redone so it wasn’t that impressive to me because there was no history to it.

The rest of the tour gave me a better perspective of Naples and also changed my mind about how dirty it is. It is dirty and I don’t plan on coming back, but there were nice parts of the town that were lush and expensive.

After the tour it was back to the boat to eat some food and relax from my day.
