We are leaving our cruise in Naples instead of Rome. We are on our way to the Amalfi Coast. We will spend one night in Napoli then it's off to Praiana!
We've been forewarned about Naples. It is famous for theives and pickpockets.A densely populated place, Naples is the working class/industrial region of Italy. There are lots of poor people here and the city is very dirty. It is also very difficult to maneuver around - I suppose the only draw is that it is close to Pompeii and Mt. Vesuvius and that it is home to an amazing Archaeological Museum. Unfortunately, however, the museum is closed today and we will not be able visit.
As we explored the area around our hotel we got an uneasy feeling. Lots of people loitering around, checking us out, if you want to call it that. We decided it was best to play it safe and hang out in the hotel. We need to relax a bit before we head to Amalfi anyway.
