I had read that driving around Pompei was like 'playing on a <br /> playstation game' - it really has to be seen to be believed. Nobody <br /> obeys street signs or road markings, or even traffic lights and everyone <br /> uses their horn as much as their accelerator pedal! After that ordeal <br /> was over and done with we parked up at 'Camping Spartacus' - a <br /> refreshing 14euro a night and parked directly opposite the entrance of <br /> the ruins. We did however run out of gas and had to travel up the road <br /> for a refill which was 8euro, not too bad, but we will certainly be <br /> getting straight on the toll roads to get out of here!<br /> We were joined on the site by a friendly Kiwi couple in a UK camper van <br />and spent the evening drinking wine and swapping places to visit and to <br />stay.<br /> Today we went into the ruins, the scale of them is impressive and we <br />walked around the streets for several hours. I'd imagine that you could <br />spend a whole day if you were really into your history, but we took in <br />as much as we could in three hours and came back to start planning the <br />rest of our trip and do some chores around the camper.<br /> We have decided that we are not going to go any further down to Sicily <br />since there is nothing any further south of here that we want to see, <br />and a Ferry from Naples is nearly £300, so we will be heading over to <br />the east coast of Italy before traveling up through some of Eastern <br />Europe, we shall plan this leg in more detail over the next few days.<br /> Enjoy the photos! :-)
