    Margaret and I literally just stepped off a plane from Naples earlier today.
     
    We spent 6 days on the Gulf of Naples, (Campania region), Italy. We based ourselves for the most part on the Island of Ischia, which is about an hours hydrofoil ride from Naples main port of Molo Beverello.
     
    More detailed blog-entry to follow – but do check out the photos in the album. There were many highlights on the trip, and we covered alot in 6 days. Namely the islands of Ischia and Procida. (the latter including it’s fascinating Good Friday procession) We also visited Pompeii and managed to get to the top of Mt Vesuvius; then of course we visited the Isle of Capri (The Blue Grotto and the climb to the top of Monte Solare were both spectacular) – and our last day we visited Sorrento where we picked up a hydrofoil to the picturesue Amalfi.
     
    Anyway, more details later once I’ve had some sleep, got my land legs back and recovered from the sun-burn.
