My condolences, Neil! I am very sorry to hear you lost a friend.

I really enjoyed seeing your photos of Naples. I have been there once and liked the city very much. It felt raw and edgy. It isn't trying to be something that it isn't.

Thank you, Susanne, and so sorry to hear of your own recent loss. Did you take any photos of Naples? Would be very interested to see what you saw there.

We were there with friends a couple of years ago. I only had my phone with me. So, photos, yes - but poor quality.

Thanks for sharing, you managed to capture beautifully the chaotic energy of Naples!

Thank you. It is addictive. Would love to revisit.

Great set of travel images Neil - I've not been to Naples but these give a really good impression of what the city is like. You might be pleased to know that one of the new heroes of Napoli's team is Scottish!😁

Thanks Lin. They have two Scots!!!

Went to Naples 6 or 7 years ago and was struck by how much they love Tennents Super! And how cheap the pizza is, I bought two by accident thinking I was buying one...

Neil Scott's avatar

Oh yes! Have been getting into my chic Tennents Super and references to McFratm.

Super interesting post. And my condolences to you on the loss of your friend.

Thank you, it does seem like him to go out with a bang rather than a long slow illness.

Very readable account of your visit to Naples! Made me think about taking a holiday that doesn't involve golf!

You should! Crete in two years!

Amazing images. Thanks for sharing!

Neil Scott's avatar

Thank you Manuela! Lots of people from North America in that part of Italy so it must resonate.

Hi Neil,

I was vividly there with you. great travel log, Wow! Gotta say, "near identical gentleman" is a scene so well seen. Offered me a wonderful moment of giggle.

Cheers!

Grazie Kenneth! What I was really hoping to see was the Umarell but I left disappointed https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umarell

Really amazing shots. Thank so much for sharing. Posts like this give me the itch to travel a lot more than I do!
