After seeing the outskirts of Naples we returned to our hotel at which place we had an excellent meal.
Wine was included and between the ten of
us we drank about 6 quarts that's going sour [?] for the first day.
NaplesAfter supper, (which started at 8 and ended at 9:30) we walked through the city. Bands of music of the most beautiful kind play in the open air. Singing concerts are also held in the open air. You have a drink and listen to a beautiful concert at the same time. All the sights seemed very strange to us. We saw the real Neapolitan life at night. We're very much though agreeably surprised. We got to bed at 1:30 A.M.
July 14, 09 [unreadable]CapriAlthough we went to bed at 1:30 A.M. we arose at 7 and nine o'clock saw us at the dock awaiting the boat for the Isle of Capri. One would think that we had not had enough of boat riding. To get to the boat we had to be rowed and we had to tip the man. To get off the boat we had to tip the man. It seems that you must even tip for the air you breathe. We tipped about 10 different people and in all we tipped about 12 cents. We arrived at the picturesque city of Sorrento at 11 A.M. and at the superb isle of Capri at 12 Noon. On this Isle Tiberius and Augustus lived.
