Our First Week in Napoli!

Jan and I finally arrived after a 24+ hour trip. We started early Tuesday morning from Jacksonville to Charlotte then Norfolk. There we caught our contracted flight from Norfolk Air Station. After waiting hours in the terminal (we actually had time to rent a car and hit downtown Norfolk for dinner), we boarded at 0005 in the AM. Our first stop was Lajes (pronounced "lodges") Azores, where the aircraft experienced a flat tire (after landing!). Several hours later, we re-boarded her and made our last flight into Naples. By 9 PM (36 hours after starting), we settled in our quarters (hotel). Since, we have been extremely busy with setting up housing and communications. Jan now has a cell phone, and we wait for an air card to help with Vonage. With the air card, we will have multiple means of communications. As for housing, we traveled East of Napoli, North of Napoli, South of Napoli. Believe it or not, Jan was considering an apartment downtown, I believe we will come to the conclusion that on the base housing is right for us. On a separate and cultural note, we found that the young Italian couples like to make out in public!!!! We tried it but it just wasn't the same as a 1975 Beetle! Lastly, we hope to visit the Amalfi coast this week. Wes and Janice
