7/3 Assisi? Si! Si! The next morning was glorious thanks to the most amazing breakfast! It was included at the hotel. It was set up as a buffet and looked like it could have been from a magazine. I had an awesome salami and prosciutto sandwich, fresh oj, green grapes, and a pastry we all called "chocolate cloud" which was essentially a flakey pastry with chocolate baked in and powdered sugar on top. We didn't have to get up too early because we were going to ...

6/29 "I'll see you in Pompeii!" I woke up at about 6 AM feeling so alert! I went downstairs, had a croissant and jam, and packed my backpack for the day. Everyone else started to get up, have coffee, and get ready to go, too. We left the villa and walked down the road to wait for the 7:25 bus to the train station. We waited. And waited. And waited. By 7:45, we realized the bus wasn't going to come. Paul piled one group of us in his car and took us up to the bu...

6/28 Arriving! So after about 7 1/2 hours of a smooth flight, I landed in Milan. I quickly made my way down to baggage claim and got my bag in about 10 mins. There was no real customs to go through (thank goodness!) I bought my bus ticket and rode the bus 45 mins. to the Milan train station. I then had to buy my ticket from Milan to Naples and got right on the train. A few hours later, I got off in Naples and had to take a new train from Naples to Sorrento. On ...

6/27 Worst. Travel. Day. Ever. Getting up at 4 AM after sleeping only about 1.5 hours was terrible. But I was packed and ready. Tom drove us to the pier and got me a free ride on the ferry into Manhattan so I could go get my passport made. The ferry left at 5:45 and got into Manhattan at 6:45. I said a quick goodbye to Tom and ran to get a cab. About 10 mins. later I was at the passport office on Hudson St. behind about 40 people in line. At 7:45, they let peop...

6/30 Capri... Like the pants I woke up and the first thing I did was go downstairs and make a salami sandwich. Everyone was discussing what to do for the day. My parents, my brother, Combes and I decided to go over to Capri for the day. The rest of the group decided to get a boat and sail around Capri and Positano. At about 9:00, we parted ways and we headed to catch our bus down to the harbor. We bought a 10:30 ticket to get on the boat to Capri. After waitin...
