One of our favorite experiences in all of Europe was visiting the ancient ruins of Pompeii and Herculaneum. Ben already shared some of our interesting discoveries at these sites (see his Pompeii and Herculaneum post), and here’s a few more photos…

Herculaneum
Amalfi Coast
Also while we were based in Sorrento, we took a bus trip along the Amalfi Coast, a popular resort area south of Naples with beautiful cliffs-meeting-the-ocean scenery. Most of the excitement of this trip was during the bus ride, which winds along the rugged coastline on a tiny road with huge drop-offs into the ocean.
Nice!!
