Gabi chills on the Transvesuviana
Wednesday, June 29, 2011
It’s not the classiest train on the planet, but MarcoNaut Gabi still finds a way to kick back and enjoy the trip from Sorrento to Pompeii on the Transvesuviana train, which goes from Sorrento to Naples, with stops in between.
Buying the Roma Pass
Wednesday, June 29, 2011
Savvy travellers know that the first stop in Rome’s Fiumicino Airport is the Terminal 3 tourist information, to buy the Roma Pass. This pass, good for 3 days after validation, allows unlimited travel on public transport, and two free admissions to Rome’s sites, including the Colosseum. During a hot, crowded summer, its worth the 25 Euros (no discount for kids) to bypass the crowds.
Athens: best cabbie in the city!

David, whom we met at the airport on arrival, took us to the airport on the way to Rome today. He pointed out Olive trees and vineyards and told us the tip that no self respecting Greek restaurant would ever serve hummus (it’s actually Lebonese).
He loves American basketball (he said the Greeks are basketball crazy) and said that Greeks eat fish only rarely, since its expensive.
Very warm and friendly guy!
