At Naples airport. Flight to Geneva is delayed. Had to let our shuttle bus company (to Chamonix) know about the delay. Since I did not buy a SIM card for the cell phone, had to send a text message via Google voice. 5 stars for Google voice and Boingo.

Sorrento wrapup
No new pictures today (Sunday). We took today off. I uploaded some pictures and Denise read. Tonight I’ve paid some bills and am now listening to the Cubs game. We are 4 for 4 on pizza per day. Tomorrow morning we go back through the chaos that is Naples and fly to Geneva Switzerland. We hired a shared shuttle bus to drive us from Geneva to Chamonix France. The shuttle bus takes 1:10. If we were to take trains it would have been more scenic, but would have taken something like 3 or 4 hours.

Had to delete some files to free space until my account gets upgraded, Monterey and Oregon Coast have been removed for now.
Paestum Pictures
On Saturday the 12th we went to Paestum. I’ve already described the effort required to get there, but it was worth it. These things are pretty cool. There’s also a museum on site with a bunch of artifacts, but I won’t bore you with those pictures.
The ‘newest’ temple, from 450 BC. That one was huge. I included a picture with me for scale.
A picture of the temple from 500 BC.
