Day 7: Amalfi Coast

I suppose not all days can be great. We woke up uber early to catch an early 4 hour train to Naples. From Naples, another train to Pompeii. Pompeii was pretty impressive! These were real bodies whose outer shells were hardened and preserved...called "Garden of the Fugitives."

From Pompeii, another train to Sorrento. In Sorrento, we decided a boat ride would be the best route to Amalfi but it turned out that we were too late for boats and had to take the bus which was another hour or so. Ended up at our AMAZING hotel, Il Saraceno, about 5 or 6pm. EXHAUSTED. It was here that my memory card also decided to give me an error and I lost all my pictures from the beginning of the trip until this point. I was so disheartened. Exhaustion and travel made for an early to bed evening and we chalked this day up to probably the worst day of the trip.
