A Walk in Naples

Come with us for a walk in Naples.

We walk down the Via dei Tribunali almost every day looking for lunch. It has both our favourite restaurant and our favourite pizza place. Posts for both coming soon!

 Tribunali is also almost unbelievably colourful

and full of locals

enjoying their daily lives.

 Excellent grocer. Good prices.

This antique shop is so crammed with stuff we are almost afraid to enter.

 But he has amazing things.

I just love the texture of life here.

Keep your eyes open on the Tribunali.

There is something to see every few feet and the play of light is a constant pleasure. 

Tribunali runs east and west. Now we're going to slip south down one of the many alleys.

What a lovely, quiet, local shrine.

 Keep an eye from side to side -- amazing visions abound.

One street south is the famous Spaccanapoli. 

I had better say something about this sculpture -- The Statue of the God Nile. The Nile is suckling a baby. The male head was added later. It's a long story.

 Expect regular rushes of teenage students negotiating that difficult road to adulthood.

And adults negotiating the business of staying alive

 while having as much fun as possible.

 Wonderful public works abound!

 A good place for old friends.

And the unfolding mystery of life.
