Naples AND Lesson # 6

We flew into Naples.  It was a nice flight because we could see the countryside of France and the French Alps (or the tops of them).



When we got to Naples we took a bus down to the Port which is where our hotel was.  We decided not to rent a taxi since it was walking distance to the hotel but the bloody hotel was no where to be found.  We walked around in circles in the middle of the day, scorching heat, with what felt like 1,000 pounds on our backs.  The streets in Naples were not marked and people didn't really know where the building was although they would point somewhere pretending that they did.  Many hotels are on certain floors of old historic buildings and DO NOT look like hotels!

LESSON #6  LISTEN TO PROMPTINGS!  YOUR BRAIN DOES NOT KNOW BETTER!

So in the beginning of our search to find our building I spotted a cute yellow building and immediately thought "THATS IT!"  A second later, my brain kicked in and told me that I had no logical reason to believe that its the building.  I didn't even know if we were in the right area because we hadn't really started "searching" yet.  So, as a result of my dumbness we wandered around for about an hour until we came to the same spot, yes, the cute yellow building.  It had a sign for the hotel that was about 8 1/2 x 11 inches.  (wth#%$^#&&).  When I politely told them they might want to get a bigger size they said that the neighbors didn't like it so they took it down.


My brain is constantly spinning and daydreaming and it's sometimes so noisy that is is hard to be led by the spirit.  One major task in this life is to learn discern between your head and the Holy Ghost and to follow the Holy Ghost, he will never lead you astray.

We were only in Naples for two nights, one night on the way to Capri and another night before our flight to Santorini.  Heres a few pics:




we cook most of our own meals.  Chicken with Pasta and red peppers with a garden salad.  it was good.
