Southern Italy III: Naples

Naples is an interesting place... when they say it's gritty, they ain't kiddin'. In the words of Dr. Dawson "It's like Italy's New York." In the words of me: "Its more like Italy's Detroit..."

Yes, it is the birthplace of pizza. Yes, it was really popular in ancient times. Yes, there are a lot of Italian Americans with families from Naples. To the last point, I say this, if Naples were that great, you would be Italian, not American. Think about it.

There were a few times that I was completely sketched out... thank goodness for some of the guys in the program being really great and helping us poor females out.

The pizza was great. The company was great. The setting, not so much.

I probably wouldn't go back to Naples... ever. But it was an experience.

I didn't bring my camera off of the bus for fear of it being stolen... but here's a picture of me and Christine being cute to make you feel better.
