We were a bit in limbo, but hurrah Sam has found us an AirBnB to last our entire time in Napoli! Before that, we have one more night on the familiar east side, still at our comfortable Hotel San Pietro.
My photos are a bit scrambled somehow, so the following will be a bit random, but mostly of food as usual 😀
Trading again the next day, same spot #WeeFeeSome good graffitiTypical street lolSam in her white blouse!This is a VERY legit pizza placeDang, I found this place too lateTaking Brown out for a walk
Time passes… we ask the San Pietro front desk guys for a dinner idea, preferable seafood. They came through in a big way, perhaps bigger than Sam would have liked haha but they pointed us to a terrific place… the GPS took us on a very sketchy route though, sometimes the quickest way isn’t always the best?
This is a different direction than we’d ever takenSome very dark and lonely streetsYes, fish was to be had!!And insane live crabWe were NOT a fan of getting here, but this is an awesome seafood placeOne of the scary streets back
We survived the walk and crashed again at our hotel… tomorrow night we’d be at the new digs! In the morning, we said goodbye to our ole hotel and took one last look around the local area.
Random church, I dubbed it the Church of Spock (check out that dude’s hand)This church—not even on the map!!!—got nailed pretty hard in WWII but you can still see signs here and there of what it must once have looked likeApparently this is a view onto the original floors from the 1300s, the current modern floors are early 1600s—how gauche!This beat-up old place is still a beautyGreek ruins from around 400BC, so approx contemporary with the Parthenon These small alleyways are everywhere, and of course the Italians still race huge trucks down them lolSomehow we found this great restaurant again, only now we are seated inside! The waitress at the back has a crazy wine-stick she uses to retrieve a bottle from the top shelfIt is pretty coolPlus a grappa!!!
And goodbye Hotel San Pietro, and goodbye to all the loud noisy grungy yet adorable east side, we’re headed off to the other end of Napoli, supposedly clean easy & calm?
