After days of lounging around the hostel and doing no exercise at all, we decided to take a train ride to Naples. After the train adventure, we got to experience the luscious and clean environment of Naples. The amount of Moroccans selling the same beautiful souvenirs as all the others made the whole experience of Naples superb. But it wasn't the magical city of Naples we were there for; it was the Museum, which held some of the most coolio statues I've ever seen. The highlight of the Museum for me was definitely the mosaics as some of the ones from the House of the Dancing Faun, I had studied last year in Classics. I think everyone's favourite part of the Museum was the brothel mosaics and sculptures ;) We saw lots of naughty things such as the male genitalia; the penis huehue.
On the same day, we departed from Naples on another train, and headed to Pompeii where we saw some old stuff. While on the train, we got to enjoy some fantastic pull-ups by an Italian with the best mullet in the history of swaggers. There was also some lovely ambient music coming from a swag lord's mobile. It really did set the romantic mood of the train. After all of this, we rolled on into Pompeii, ready to see some cribs! The houses were all very ruined but still very radical like Logan. We only saw 2 of the main houses, as the House of the Vetti and House of Pansa were both closed due to no reason (typical Mexicans). House of mysteries was probably my favourite as it was fabulously awesomely cool. It had the Dionysiac frieze (not mr. freeze from our favourite batman movie) and it was BIG. We also saw the actual brothel, which still held the actual beds. It's nice to know that 2000 years ago, some people had special hugs :O Anyway, fun was had. Reid smells and Ben is getting a tan!
