We had a early alarm this morning since we were meeting the Taskers for breakfast at 7am.
Today was a beautiful sunny day. We were off the ship by 7:45 but missed the 8am ferry to Sorrento by minutes so had to wait for the 9:10 ferry. Carleigh and I went back on board the Jade so she could eat since she missed breakfast.
We took the ferry which took 35 minutes to get to Sorrento. Once there we had a bit of a walk uphill with lots of steps to get to the town from the waterfront. At the top the views were wonderful. We lost the Taskers on the way up the hill but found them again in town. Carleigh and I then went our own way planning to meet up again at the train station at 1pm.
Carleigh and I wandered up and down the quaint little streets for a few hours stopping for gelato for lunch (the store showed pictures of sandwiches outside but once inside we were told they didn't have sandwiches so we got the next best thing – gelato!)
We went to the train station a little early and so did the Taskers so we got an earlier train to Pompeii. We arrived there around 1pm. Pompeii is much larger than I thought it was going to be. We walked around until 3 and then took the train back to Naples. We were back on board by 4pm and our first stop was the buffet for something to eat.
We had a quiet evening since our legs and feet were tired from all the walking we did today. Tonight's show was a tribute to Celine Deon which we passed on since neither of us our fans of hers.
Early to bed tonight.
Tomorrow Rome!
