Naples and Vico Equense

Monday we left Sicily and hopped a plane to Napoli.  Naples is the largest city of southern Italy, and one of the busiest port cities in the world (I believe second only to Hong Kong).  It's situated between the Bay of Naples and Mount Vesuvius.



After a hectic drive through Catania to leave Sicily, we landed in Naples, and jumped on a bus to the Stazione Centrale (Central Train Station), and then tried to take a train around the bay to our apartment in the quaint town of Vico Equense.

Unfortunately the train system around here sucks balls.  The first train was so packed that we couldn't fit on it with a shoehorn.  The second train was cancelled.  So the THIRD train finally showed up... and after about an hour, we arrived in Vico Equense.  Thankfully our apartment is only about two blocks from the station, and the view from our balcony made it all worth it:
