We woke this morning in Rome and are now camped right be the sea in a little village near Sorento down by Naples. The village has a gorgeous little harbour which looks back across the bay of Naples onto the city and Mount Vesuvius in the background. Quality views from here and a little bar on the harbour front some 50 meters from where we're camped.
Today has been a driving day but we still managed to fit in a quick climb of Vesuvius along the way. We drove up a thin single track lane to the car park near the top and walked the rest of the way up to the cauldera. Huge views from the top across the Bay of Naples and of course of the volcano crater too.
We were once again today reminded of how versatile the T5 is compared to say a motor home. Sure our little van is not as palacious as some of the houses on wheels we see along side us in the campsites but it sure is easier to drive. We've had it in an underground carpark in Monaco - just - and have been up more switchback mountain roads than you can shake a stick at over the last week with no more trouble than a car would have. Brilliant.
Barbeque is on. Broadside ale is poured. And ... relax.
