June 5, 2016.  Today is Sunday, and we woke pulling into the. Port at Naples.  It s just like you would imagine an old world Italian post city to be. Built on the hills, you see an old monte start at the top of the hill and house of all colors below, with buildings of all shapes at the base of the hills leading up to the water.   Off the shores you see island shrouded in a light fog.  Just in front of the ship is a very old castle. The water is blue and the sky is too.  It is lovely.

We dress and head for breakfast with more choices then you could ever dream of having.  The food is al so delicious.  We eat and then Mary Lou, Doug and I stroll into town.  Kate stays on the ship to catch up on some work and to rest.  We first explore the castle, going into the ancient chapel with fading frescos and lovely old statures along.  Then we wander up the street to explore the vibrant medieval city,  When looking for a bathroom we came upon this typical Italian pizza restaurant with outside seating and wonderful waiters. Naples is famous for pizza and so we had to try some.  Of course it was wonderful.  We wondered down some more streets before finding our way back to the ship.  It was fun just to meander and be a part of the people

Returning to the ship and after a nap I found the spa and spent 2 hours soaking in the whirlpool, the sauna, the steam room and warm water beds. It was heaven.

Then it was time for dinner and entertainment.  I had a wonderful Morrocan Chicken and the rest of the group had shrimp and steak.  Each of us had a different desert, each fabulous.  Then we Doug and I went to listen to some 60's nd 60's music while Kate and Mary Lou went to do a little shopping.

What a day! It was so relaxing and beautiful!

Message of the Day:  Life is beautiful. Slow down and enjoy it.
