Spending ”a few hours” in a city can present the most cherished moments. Walking on Spaccanapoli, one of the oldest streets in Naples, on a sunny Sunday morning I would suppose is lovely during any season.
The masses were being finished when we entered Santa Chiara and Il Gesù Nuovo after climbing narrow alleys from around Corso Umberto. A group of priests hurried by in the New Jesus, one of them, the youngest, wearing jeans and sneakers under his robe.
Confessions were taking place left and right, the sinners sitting outside the booths, priest inside.
We bought wild strawberry eclairs at Scaturchio on Piazza San Domenico Maggiore before checking out from the hotel to finally take the boat to Capri.
Just reading those words makes my day: Piazza San Domenico Maggiore.

I reached your blog from Emi "Letters to the end consumer" blog.
I'm so envious for you staying in Axel Munthe Villa in Anacapri! And now, with this wonderful weather. I really loved that place.
I love Napoli as well and I've been there many times, despite the bad reputation the city has among most of the italians (not only foreigners).
It's a lovely city with a caos in its veins.
Ciao

PS don't go to Villa Malaparte or may envy will become outrageous!
Ciao Valeria.
Thanks for popping by!
I'm proud to be connected to Emi, bless her.
We'll be going to Naples this weekend, very exciting.
And yes, Villa Malaparte is a must. Later this week I hope.
Do you also write a blog?
I'm new at this, figuring things out. It's a lot of fun.

PS yes, I'm supposed to blog but not as much as someone else, I'm busy with my work and lazy on the rest
I'm sorry I don't read Italian. Never having learned it is a regret in my life.
Ciao
