8 of us decided to take one of the Tour's offered by the ships Welfare
& Rec Dept one Saturday. This is Photo of me of course in front the
restaurant we had lunch in Capri, 3 Bottles of Vino we really started
to have fun, Gentleman in uniform always !
We had a great time and was able to really get around and see almost
every thing as 80% of the people were tourist also.
I may point out the road going across the face of the cliff, we understand
why we found no old taxi drivers, that one hair raising trip the view was
great if you like heights, but we needed more wine after the Ride,
and definitely not a E ticket.
One of the Roman emperors was holed up on top of the mountain, able
to live there without fear of reprisal as I understand it he was not well
liked. We got up here by chair lift that ran just over the tops of peoples
houses, we as always waved to every one.
Hover Craft, one of the fastest ways to get there, they also have a
Helo that runs hourly, but we could not afford that so we were on one of
the local ferries in the back ground, slow and cheap.
Same Mountain Top, I believe that Dave Fryman and Bowers, both from
the R-6 division (DASH)
Another one of our visits to the local sites this time Mount Vesuvius,
as I may point out OSHA never visited Italy, if you get to close to a cliff
you fall off and that is your problem. No fences or caution sign telling
you it may be dangerous. The Italians believe if you can not see that for
yourself you get what you deserve.
