Naples, Italy: SideTrip to Capri

I woke up early for my trip to Capri.  I have been dying to see this place.  Being as stubborn as I am, I refuse cabs.  So I walked to the ferry and I got so very lost.  I mean LOST.  And sunburned

When I found the ferry terminal, it was the slow ferry terminal. The fast ferries leave from somewhere else, but damned if I was going to try and find it.

I did a quick picture post here:

Let me tell you about those swing chairs.  They are absolutely frightening.  I was so scared I was going to die.  But then I looked down.  I mean straight down.   That was when I realized that the ground was never all that far from my feet.  You see, the mountain goes up with you!  So if you look left and right and fear your life, stop it and look straight down!

When I got to the top, I was watching in horror as these people were so close to the edge.  They have way more balls than I do.

I slept like I was dead.  It was wonderful.
