green is good

On a sunny day in early March, young parents with their strollers flock to the park of the Villa Floridiana, atop Vomero Hill. It's one of the places in the city where greenery is abundant.

devotion of the people

These informal and popular shrines are found all over the old city. This one honors St. Gennario, patron of Naples.

Pane delicioso

Bustling even on a Sunday morning. . . I purchased a loaf of bread here to bring with me on the Circuvesuviana train to Pompei. (The station is just a stone throw's away.)

Sfogliate from Pintauro

The Neapolitan specialty in my hand, with a corner bitten off… It is a sweet pastry with crunchy layers around a ricotta-filling. Served warm. Delicious.

I love these statues (and coffee of course)

Definitely my idea to have a look, around and about no matter where I am and Naples was no exception.
