Napoli

For this free weekend, Sarah, Sara, Samantha, Aaron, and myself are exploring the Amalfi Coast! Today began like every day this week; class bright and early. Afterward, we had about an hour until the five of us left for Naples. Our flight wasn't my favorite I've ever been on. We flew through rather dark clouds and experienced quite a bit of turbulence. 
Once we landed, we found our way to a bus that took us near the hostel. Not to worry anyone at home, but it's pretty ghetto here. I don't think it's even the area we're in that's sketch; it's the whole city. It's just really dirty and rough and the fact that its probably around 90 degrees at 10:30 still isn't helping the cause. The guy that checked us in was helpful though and told us all about what we need to know regarding where to eat and how to get to Pompeii tomorrow. We dined at L'Antica Pizzeria da Michele, the most famous pizza place in Naples. Julia Roberts in 'Eat. Pray. Love' ate there! It was so delicious. For only 4€, you could choose from one of the two pizzas they offered, Margarita and Marinara. I got the Margarita and a Peroni to drink. We stayed too long because when we left after staying for a couple hours, there were probably 50 people waiting to get into the coveted establishment.
