Well, our friends REALLY wanted to visit Pompeii and Naples. So we drove them down so they could see it. It was actually a pretty relaxing trip because while they were in Pompeii (the ruins) we just walked the streets of the current Pompeii. It's a quaint little town now.
When in Naples you MUST try their famous pizza! The traditional is just a plain cheese pizza, but it's full of flavor!
Trying to figure out how to eat it :)
The secret to the pizza is to have an oven like this

WOW! WE found a squished penny machine in Pompeii! This is a great cheap souvenir and it's fun to be on the lookout for these machines. They are out their but not always easy to find.
Just resting on a bench in the shade for a little while
Yes, the pizza is that good.
We were right next to the table that Julia Roberts ate at...so we took a picture of it. Our table was a famous soccer guy ;)
This man just loved that Yoyo was carrying around a box of pizza. we asked for a picture together (I don't believe he speaks or hears) but he was happy to take a picture. He got really tickled/embarrassed because he was joling around with her and opened the box. I really don't think he thought there was pizza in it so when he saw it, he was very apologetic and laughed at his mistake.
Cold lemon icees...2.50 for these tiny things! I would not have bought them at that price. XJ, however, offered them to each of the kids.
These two were being sneaky and went shopping alone...wInter bought me a magnet and wanted to surprise me
