We landed in Naples this morning. This was a bonus city that was added along with Istanbul to replace Egypt. The weather was similar to home. For the first time on the trip we had steady rain. Naples is where Pizza was invented. It is also the site where 120 bombings by the Nazis took place in WWII. We bought a train ticket to Pompeii when we got off the ship and walked to the train station. We were warned that there may be a train strike. When we got to the station it was confirmed. The strike only lasts for a few hours. We were standing near a couple and negotiated a cab to Pompeii. Pompeii was a Roman settlement that got buried when Mt Versuvius erupted 1,7000 years ago.
