Napoli

Naples, a city on the West Coast...mostly for the rich and famous.  But for one night, it was a getaway for my mom and I.  Friday after work we drove over to Naples and checked into the Inn on Fifth.  A really beautiful hotel.  We checked in and then took a walk downtown and did some shopping and then took a walk down to the beach.

Inn on Fifth

The West coast is known for their beaches.  The sand is like powdered sugar and the sea shells are pretty amazing.  We took in the view and picked out the beach front property that my mom and dad will move into.





We ate at an Irish pub, sitting outside on the patio, enjoying the perfect weather and people watching.  The next morning we got up early and headed down to the beach where we were told we could see dolphins.  Unfortunately they decided to sleep in, but we did get to witness the life of the fishermen on the pier.  They like to throw the fish they catch in front of your feet so you can watch them flop around and die.  Not as pleasant as dolphins...





Next stop: Sanibel Island!
