Naples, Italy November 2007

We just came back from Naples yesterday and had such a wonderful time. It's such a big city and we didn't get to see everything but we enjoyed eating Italian food. People told us that Naples has good pizza and it's true. I think we ordered it for lunch and dinner. The people are also nice here. We're glad that we chose Naples!



Juliette helped to make a cake for Ken's birthday, so we celebrated before leaving for Italy.

Ken and Melissa slept on the plane.

We took the train to Pompeii, such a magnificent place.
We were able to see only half of the ruins during our 3.5 hour visit

We went to the National Museum and enjoyed seeing all the sculptures and paintings from the Pompeii.

Melissa wanted to see the map of Pompeii.

The map of the city of Pompeii. After looking at the map, we realize that we only saw only 30 percent of the city while we were there ( 3 hours).

Ken loves Italian coffee.

The outside of the church. It was closed so we couldn't go inside.

There were lots of stands with snacks and we couldn't try it all.

This is Han's favorite Italian shoes and we went in to see if we found her boots. We stayed just down the street and this is a big shopping district. Han really loved it.

There were side streets that had lots of shops of Christmas stuff. It looked like Chinatown with lots of people and junk.

Stopping by for gelato even though it's cold outside. We tried several flavors. We liked coconut and coffee the best.

Here is a view of the shopping district at night time.

We went to a great restaurant for our last dinner here.

Here is the seafood pizza. We ordered more pizzas since it was our last night here.

Ken stopped by one of the Italian cafes for an expresso.
