After 10 hours of travel on a train, trying all kinds of sitting and lying positions to fall asleep, we finally reach NAPLES!
First impression, a very very messy city with lots of people and vehicles and confusing streets. We felt unsafe.
Upon reaching the hostel, we are relieved! It was small and cosy and friendly staff.
View from the hostel and getting ready to go Pompeii!
Along the way to Pompeii, we passed by a church and there we start our camera's engine, busy clicking non stop...
Pompeii is a place of interest near the city of Naples 45 minutes bus ride, characterized by its vast land of ruins. It was originally a village till it was being drowned in a volcanic eruption. There are bodies in the ruins (in its original posture)which was still perserved by the volcanic ashes. (this is my own understanding, haha.. may be wrong)
Both of us was lost from the pack who went to see the bodies without us!
So we kept ourselves busy by taking photos once again.. haha
i can't emphasize and illustrate how large the ruins area were..
We jus kept walking and walking..
Though it's jus a land of ruins, all of us enjoyed ourselves thoroughly from this change of landscape, good weather and blue skies. haha.. how i wish i could see the village's original form with its true vitality and people..
