Today we were able to get one thing done on our list and that was to go to Tasso for dinner.
The day started off late of course with us going to the bus stop and to our delight Marco was driving by and gave us a ride. It's really funny how now that we've been here for a couple of weeks people are starting to open up to us and talk.
Today we learned that Marco is originally from Naples (which he thinks is bad) and he has a wife of 8 years and two daughters 7 and 5. On the way to the city we talked about homeschooling, he was surprised it was legal; he told us about the riots in Naples happening because of the needed new location for a second city dump. He dropped us off at the town center and we walked for a while and did a little shopping. We stopped for a snack because the restaurant didn't open until 630. Then it was time for dinner.
The place is upscale and the menu is heavy on fish. Landry ordered the crispy calamari (which she thought would be fried) and Rob ordered grilled scampi prawns and fish and we ordered some barbecued vegetables to share and Ravioli. The food was good but I still think the food from the bar or the Monnalisa was better and cheaper. It was pouring down raining today and a lot of the shops were closed. So tomorrow we have an early start with our trip to Capri so good night all.
Goodnight!! Dont forget to take lots of pictures in Capri!! Is homeschooling not legal there?? How was pompeii? I dont remember reading about that!! Dont forget to call me when you get back - call on your late shift home!
ReplyDeleteMy goodness, it sounds like y'all been doing more eating than anything with all the pasta & fish..lol. Take more pics and post them. So far the last one I saw was of you standing on the balcony alone cheesing for the camera. I meant to ask you guys, how did you get Marco as your driver? Was it already set up or he was the cabby that y'all befriended?
