TheCaveman Posted May 20, 2014 Author #52 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Day 4 Naples We only arrived there at 1pm. We left the ship and decided to walk to the train station to see if we could catch the train to Pompeii. It’s not very far to walk, however we did few stops at shops etc, also crossing the street in Naples is a challenge. The traffic rule in there is – there is no rules. Everybody are driving whichever way the like and any direction that suit them. Pedestrian crossings and traffic lights are just suggestions, useless and they are just for laugh, as absolutely nobody is considering them. Want to cross the street? Just run as fast as you can When we finally got to the station and checked how long it would take us to get to Pompeii and back, we decided not to go, as we would be cutting it fine to be back for sailaway. So we wandered a bit more on the streets, found the famous pizza place Michelle from the movie “Eat, Pray, love” After that we went back to the ship and started getting ready for the dinner. After dinner, the usual, we went to the Purple Bar, Casino and night club. Great night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCaveman Posted May 20, 2014 Author #54 Share Posted May 20, 2014 These pictures make Naples look like a nice place, but, it is one of teh dirtiest city's we have been to... There were garbage everywhere on the streets, dirty nappies, etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCaveman Posted May 20, 2014 Author #58 Share Posted May 20, 2014 After dinner, we went to the Purple Bar. It was another great night. Little did we know, this will be another one of those, we stayed in the Night club till closing time... One of many rounds of B52 shots... Later we had some Chicken Wings from the sports bar, these are €5 per portion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCaveman Posted May 20, 2014 Author #59 Share Posted May 20, 2014 and we washed them down with some of these... WE really enjoyed the night club, as, they have waiters walking around, and we just ordered rounds from them. Not once did we encounter slow service due to the face that we had Allegrissimo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WE really enjoyed the night club, as, they have waiters walking around, and we just ordered rounds from them. Not once did we encounter slow service due to the face that we had Allegrissimo Ah B52's. The cornerstone to a beautiful Allegrissimo evening. Really enjoying this review. Pictures are great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruiserFromTheRock Posted May 20, 2014 #65 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Sailing on the Splendida this summer. This review is awesome! Appreciate the pics and learning of experiences at each port!! Not many cruisers here on CC from Splendida. You are making my wait to board difficult!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papcx Posted May 20, 2014 #66 Share Posted May 20, 2014 (edited) What's in a B52? Lots of lovely stuff! Kalua, Baileys & Gran Marnia. Personally I like them heavy on the Kalua, light on the Gran Marnia. You can either sip them nice and civilised or neck them in one.

AmoMondo Posted May 21, 2014 #67 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Lots of lovely stuff! Kalua, Baileys & Gran Marnia. Personally I like them heavy on the Kalua, light on the Gran Marnia. You can either sip them nice and civilised or neck them in one. ....and there are 2 ways to do the civilised sipping....drink it layer by layer or sip itso you get a bit of each flavour at the same time. I prefer the latter. There is a Mack to the two different ways, but with Allegrissimo you can practise repeatedly. Then again just do it like a shot!

I had to laugh at this one! We did not have any problem crossing the streets in Naples. Why? because you just have to cross 1 time to go to Pompei! From the port the tram is right there, and getting off at the train station is very easy as well. Rome is rather safe in comparison. I've been there many times and never had a problem. Just be awake.
