Italy Travel Journal

I didn’t keep a count, but at the time I wrote this category description, I probably spent more time in Italy than in any other country apart from Canada (my home) and the United States. And I’m not sure about the United States.

A lot of those days were part of trips that I took before starting this travel journal, so you won’t find descriptions of them here. Nevertheless, this category does hold a number of journal entries.

The Italy category is a subcategory of my “Europe” category. In turn, this country category has subcategories for the cities and towns I visited in the country. If I took a day trip to another city or town, I usually include that only in the subcategory for the city or town where I started and ended the day, not the target of the day trip. Sorry about that.

Then again, I’m not the most consistent person in the world. I might break that rule a few times. If this displeases you, you should definitely demand a refund.

On to Sorrento

This morning I took a ferry from Naples to Sorrento. Ah, life at sea. Well, considerably shorter than life, thankfully. The thought of a sea...

Gallerie d’Italia & Galleria Borbonica

I wasn’t particularily ambitious this afternoon. I visited a relatively small art gallery, Gallerie d’Italia, and took another underground Naples tour, Galleria Borbonica. Getting to...

Pompeii

Today’s theme is “cities destroyed by Mount Vesuvius, but hopefully not while I’m in the area.” After visiting the Herculaneum archaeological site this morning, I...
