We had our worst sleep ever last night we both feel like we have been violated, our feeling of safety in this country has been revoked! Alas we tried to head forwards today our plan was to visit the ancient town of Pompeii. We first went to Europcar at the airport in naples and picked up our 3rd and most impressive car an automatic renault. Driving through Naples today was the same as last night, this is a scary looking place I honestly felt for one of the first ...

For those of you who do not know, today was.... How do i put this nicely? Now we have had time to let it sink in i would say it was "One deflating, devastating and truly &@$!?@ up day!" Let's start with the good stuff, we got up early packed our car full of all our earthly possessions and drove to Vatican city. We went into the Sistine chapel and had a look it was pretty amazing to see all of the detailed work. We then walked to the big church in Vatican and ...

Unfortunately the train line was broken or blocked or something and as we are not Italian language specialists we ended up doing ...

The actual statue of David is very good it is extremely detailed and to our surprise extremely big at over 5 meters tall!! After venturing to the museum we went and found our car in the back alleys where we had given a man the keys the night before. Luckily it was still there...

We enjoyed our buffet breakfast in Genoa (probably our best memory of this place), and headed south. Our first place to visit was Pisa with one major attraction in mind, it did not disappoint!! The leaning tower is situated inside an old stone walled area, it also has some really nice old buildings next to it. It was busy and hot but this was to be expected, what happened next was not. Italy has a lot of tolls on its main roads which are as we found out all run ...
