Next day we headed for Vesuvius which was a spectacular drive and very excellent views. Didn't do the climb on foot though to the summit. Had to pay pretty much for everything, car park, toilet, walk up the summit.
Drove back via the towns looking for a supermarket
. Found a couple but not much to snack on. Never mind back to the hotel. Getting used to the narrow streets, maybe the south is poorer than the north?
Then to Pompeii. Thought we got ripped off in the car park again but that worked out fine. Pompeii was surprisingly excellent. Well worth a visit, the preservation really stokes up the imagination. More driving, find an Autogrill :)
