Florida in Europe? Disney (Cruise) and Theme Parks - Day 8 - Naples
Monday 24 August – Naples, Italy
Today we are in Naples, Italy and I heard the ship dock at about 6.50am but Harriet was still fast asleep. I went back to sleep and woke at about 9.15, went to the buffet to get a coffee and then returned to bed to read until 10.10 when I woke Harriet to see if she wanted breakfast as they finished serving at 10.45. We have been to Naples twice before as part of previous Mediterranean cruises and the idea of this Disney cruise was to enjoy the ship rather than sight see in the various ports. On a previous trip we booked a family tour of Pompeii which is a short coach ride away and we have also looked around Naples, however I’m not keen on Naples, it’s a large, dirty, noisy city, there is a small shopping area in the port building where I have stocked up on wine and snacks and bought souvenirs at before, but this time didn’t even get off the boat to do this! I spent the day sunbathing, reading etc at the adult pool and Harriet went back to the Edge clubroom to meet her friends. The Edge clubroom - later in 2015 the Disney Magic was remodelled and The Edge moved from Deck 2 up to one of the pool decks. This photo is from when we sailed. At 5pm Harriet came and found me and we both got showered and at 6pm went to the Beuna Vista theatre to watch ‘Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day’, however at 6.40 I went to watch the live show ‘Twice Charmed’ in the Walt Disney theatre but Harriet stayed to watch the film. The show was excellent and was the Cinderella story with a twist. Dinner tonight was in Carioca’s which is South American themed, I had steak and Harriet enjoyed the honey BBQ chicken and sweet potato mash. Afterwards Harriet went back to the club to meet her friends and I went to the Promenade Lounge, got a drink and took part in the Disney Music Quiz. Soon after Harriet came to find me as her friends had gone to bed!

Hmm, not really feeling Naples but we are thinking we might go to Herculaneum.
Carioca's looks lovely.

I bet it was nice and quiet on the ship while others were off on excursion!
We docked in Salerno instead of Naples - sounds like we didn't miss much. |

I actually like Naples as it's real & not there just for tourists, but you had a good day on ship

A nice chilled day.
We've been to Naples twice, the first time I was very edgy, there was lots of shady characters about. The second time was better. We had a long walk along the front and met a couple of nice cafe owners.

We really enjoy getting the hydrofoil over to Capri when we dock at Naples, but I love a quiet ship day too!

We had a great time in Herculaneum and Naples in the end, despite torrential rain!
