Naples is one of Southern Italy’s biggest tourist draws and it’s easy to see why. Located under the Vesuvius volcano, Naples is one of the most exciting cities in Italy. Some of the most incredible attractions like Pompeii, near the Vesuvius,the Capodimonte Museum and Castel Nuovo are amazing. From shopping and cultural activities to its rich cuisine, there is much to enjoy for the visitor. Th

BreakfastAnother quick breakfast and we were off to see the city of Naples.Too Much SnackingShortly after getting off the boat, we spotted a cafe, which are all over the place. In Italy, it seems that cafes look a little like small bars, but people are standing around drinking cafes (what we think of as espresso). I wanted to try one so we took it to go since we don't speak Italian. Everyone stand
Living in Italy, I am always interested in the local news. Not only for the contents, but also to get a feel of how people over here think and live their lives...I reported in an earlier post about the garbage problem in Naples which left piles of stinking rubbish uncollected since December, due to incompetent governance and interests of the Comorra, the Mafia's local variant.In January, the army

If you are looking for a European tourist destination, consider the unique area east of Naples in the Campania region of southwestern Italy on the Tyrrhenian Sea. The ancient cities of Herculaneum and Pompeii are in essence giant, sometimes open-air museums that display in utmost detail what life was like in the Roman Empire. You should also see Mount Vesuvius. In a bizarre sense this mountain ga

Naples might be knee-high in trash, but there is real vibrancy, and even a little beauty, in all that chaos.

Piazza Plebiscito is the largest square in Naples. It is named for the plebiscite taken in 1860 that brought Naples into the unified Kingdom of Italy under the House of Savoy. It is bounded on the east by the Royal Palace and on the west by the church of San Francesco di Paola with the [...]
I purchased 2 of these Phalaenopsis Naples nights x (Petite rose x Glad melinda) which also have mottled leaves, along with a Dendrobium Cathey Beck, and a Encyclia Atronecium 'Mother's Day' x Enc. cordigera 'Chocolate Violets for an orchid growing project on orchidgeeks . The best part about the project so far is I have the first spike growing. Here is my first project for the growing project. I took a coconut and with a machette I split it in half leaving 1 side still attached. Then I took orchid moss and let it soak in some worm tea water. I drilled a couple holes so I could tie the phals down in the coconut shell. Then I placed each 1 in each side being careful to pack plenty of moss in between the roots. These are the pictures of my project.Come Watch my Plants Grow

Naples is in the region of Campania in Southern Italy, about 2-hours south of Rome. It sits on the coast on the northern edge of the Bay of Naples, one of the most beautiful bays in Italy. Naples is the main transportation hub for southern Italy with several major train lines. The train and bus stations are in the huge Piazza Garibaldi, on the eastern side of Naples. Naples has an airport, Aeroporto Capodichino, with flights to other parts of Italy and to Europe. A bus connects the airport with Piazza Garibaldi. Ferries and hydrofoils run from Naple's Molo Beverello to the islands of Capri, Ischia, Procida, and Sardinia. Its name comes from the Greek Neapolis meaning new city. Its close proximity to many interesting sites, such as Pompeii and t
Between christmas and new year we were in Naples, Italy. The birthplace of pizza. When in Naples, it is a must to go to Pizzeria Da Michele. For Napolitans this is the best place to eat pizza in Naples, period (and therefore the world). We had to wait 2 hours in the winter cold for a table!(check the pictures) Napolitans are willing to wait even longer actually. We went there early so we didn't have to wait so long (apparently 2 hours is still quick for this place). The pizza was really worth the wait even though you can only get margerita (tomato sauce, garlic, basil, mozzarella) or marinara (tomato sauce, garlic, basil). With their secret dough recipe, the pizza dough is so soft and elastic it is almost like a crepe. The restaurant itself is very simple. People don't go the

I just returned from a couple of days of visiting my parents in Naples, Florida. They’ve got a wonderful lanai overlooking the Gulf of Mexico, so I did a couple of watercolor sketches out there. Above is a section of their seating area, and below is a quick sketch of the view of the Gulf from the lanai. Both are watercolor, 8×10″ across a two page spread in my sketchbook.
In the United States organized crime has entered a Tony Soprano twilight, as small-time bosses carve up ever-smaller wedges of a shrinking pie. In Italy, by contrast, all systems are go. In shipping, fashion and construction, to name just three booming businesses, the mob holds sway, often acting through, rather than despite, local government. All told, according to a recent report by an Italian
When my parents went to Naples, Italy, 15 years ago, a taxi driver told my mother to hide her Mandarina Duck handbag under the back seat, the better to elude the city’s notorious thieves. If the image brings to mind an out-of-towner’s visit to New York during that same time, be assured that Naples is Naples, a city quite unlike any other, although it (much like New York) has overcome its reputation as a crime capital.
It is the city of Mount Vesuvio and Pompeii, of the Camorra Mafia and a continuing garbage-removal problem. It has the best tailors in Italy. We also know it as the backdrop of Pasolini’s “Il Decameron” and Billy Wilder’s “Avanti” and multiple films starring Sophia Loren. What is not so well known is that Naples is also home to a group of first-rate art galleries and emerging talent. While Turin still holds the title as the country’s premier destination for contemporary art, Naples is Italy’s best-kept secret.

Mario Diaz-Balart and Connie Mack had voted against the Children’s Health Insurance Program. After all, what do they have against children?But nothing is ever as it seems in Washington.And although Democrats accused Diaz-Balart, the Miami Republican who represents part of Collier County, and Mack, R-Fort Myers, of standing in the way of providing health coverage to children, Mack, at least had a different point of view.“We all

In the bay of Conca dei Marini, part of the Amalfi Coast, you will find one of the best scuba diving spots in the area: Capo di Conca. This is the ‘gate’ to a spectacular cliff for scuba diving or underwater photography; you can dive into a cave located at 35 meters deep where you will find thousands of red shrimps and sponges. Also, it is very common to see octopuses, moray eels and seahorses

Swarts will give up his post as Erie County Clerk for the Albany assignment. Swarts has held his county job since 1987 and was re-elected in November to another four-year term.

How much would you pay to have dinner with Robert Redford? What would you kick in for a walk on roll in Grey's Anatomy? How much is it worth to you to be the first person in the United States to own the new Rolls Royce convertible? What if all of the money was going to charity?
I have been to a few charity wine auctions and we used to attend several fundraisers in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., during thoroughbred season, but the Naples Winter Wine Festival is in a very different league. All of the money raised during the Jan. 26-28 event goes to help the Naples Children and Education Foundation. Last year the event generated $12.2 million. More than $40 million has gone to charities since the festival was established in 2001.
You need to be wealthy, connected and lucky to even attend the Naples Festival. There are just 550 tickets and the event attracts not only the extremely wealthy residents along Florida's Gulf Coast, but wine enthusiasts from across America and internationally. Depe

For a truly unforgettable pizza, take the funicular to the historic Vomero hills, and then a short cab ride to Pizzeria La Notizia.
