The ferry to Napoli was interesting. We got on the wrong one, confirmed by the ticket collector on board, but we were underway by then. Luckily we weren't cast off in a life boat by the look on his face. We got to Naples a bit early then, walked through the dirty streets and found a train to Roma, yes back to the lovely city. We stayed in another part of the city this time, away from the tourist routes. We ate at a local cafe, full of locals funnily enough, recommended at the hotel. The food was devine, the waiter reminded me strongly of House. He had a similar table side manner!
It was great being back in Roma, even if just for the night, that city grows on you. The next day we were off again, on a train to Perugia in Umbria. One of the main advantages of our ticket is that we could hop and and off the train if we wanted to do side trips. Assisi was one of those side trips. Drop the bags at the station, a short bus trip and we were in the most beautiful place, a well chosen stop.
