Naples Travel Day

We started our day early in preparation for the move to Naples. We waited for our last visit from Fausto and needed to print tickets in his office. Now here’s a treat. Fausto is not real computer savvy nor is his friend who only speaks Italian. So picture Joyce, Fausto, Debbie and the friend huddled around a computer. Joyce turns to Debbie (wait for it) and throws her under the Italian computer bus. Joyce says “Debbie is a computer expert, she can do it”. (Debbie says that she could do it if the operating system was not in Italian, all text was not in Italian, and the keyboard wasn’t Italian – different). After entering the information and fumbling around, Debbie was ready to print but it won’t. She finally figured out that the document was saving to PDF and told the little guy how to change to a printer so it would print. (All this in Italian and hand waving). To top it off at the end, the little Italian guy turned to Fausto, pointed to Debbie, waved his hands about how hyper she was, and hee-haws. (Well, yes, she was a little hyper about missing her train and you people don’t seem to have the faintest idea how to print. Debbie and Joyce saw you both shrugging your shoulders).

Fausto was supposed to arrange a cab. However, he kept getting put on hold by the cab company. (What happened to I know the owner? Fausto will get you a deal?) At this point, we spilled out on to the street with our luggage. We decided to walk to the taxi stand and use 2 taxis if needed. Fausto suggested that two people and the luggage take a cab and the other two ride Bus 64. We all looked at him in horror. We were done with Roman buses and there was no going back. (Remember Debbie and Larry could be on wanted posters for not using a ticket). Joyce, with Debbie trotting at her heels, took off for the Taxi Stand with Larry and Jerry trailing in their wake. Joyce picked out a taxi in line and says “You – Cuatro (Four) “. Thus ensues a cuatro discussion between the first taxi in line and the guy with the bigger taxi. Our appointed driver handled it well but we think that the conversation went something like this.

Cuatro Driver (our driver): Those stupid Americans don’t understand taxi etiquette.

1st in line Driver: They are too stupid for words and there are four of them

Cuatro Driver: Yes, you don’t want them in your taxi. They probably don’t know where they are going. I will get rid of them for you.

1st in line Drive: Yes, take them away

Cuatro Driver: Okay, I take you now.

To top it off, he drove us to the station for 10 Euro which is half the price of the deal that Fausto got for us. (Maybe we are too stupid for words).

We arrived at the train station to discover that they Italio train is leaving on time yet late again. We moved a step up in the train accommodations and paid for a snack. Coffee drinkers got tiny plastic cups with instant coffee. We all got some nifty cookies. (We think there were vending machines in our car for less than what we paid).

Once we arrived in Naples, we caught a cab. We arrived at the flat and almost had heart attacks when we thought that we were going to have to climb 4 flights of stairs with our suitcases. Luckily, there is a tiny elevator that runs for .20 cents. (Yes, you read this right – you get in and deposit .20 for a ride). The rest of us walked up the stairs. Joyce kept getting slower and slower until we figured out that Larry had gotten her to carry his carry on bag which is filled with rocks (He denies the rocks but we don’t believe him). The owner met us there and gave a tour with directions. As soon as she left, we had our first power outage and it took us 30 minutes to get power back on.

It is a nice flat but does have it’s drawbacks as does all places. The biggest drawback is that the microwave can only run if nothing else is on. If you try to cheat, the breaker flips and takes down the power system. (We think the first time, the apartment just took the power down to show us who was the boss). The internet is sporadic (This is why the blog is running 3 days behind – Yep, Really?) and we know where all the Italian Goth Teenagers go to hang out at night.

At the end of the day, we arrived safely and are happily ensconced in our new flat.
