corner view :: someplace else

Taking the Ferry from Pozzuoli to Ischia // Summer 2012

And in that instant they were both someplace else. She traveled to ancient times during the violent eruption of the mighty Vesuvius while the famous landscape brought him directly to center of his heart where only the best memories of his beloved Napoli lie.

We have just committed to returning to this special "someplace else" that is Napoli late this summer; it will be a good end to a busy summer.

      She and I will depart in a couple if weeks. Ischia is a very popular destination for the Germans, so I'm not surprised that you've heard of it. When we went, it was full of Neapolitans!

    i should commit to going back to Naples again too. unfortunately, my memories of naples and the US consulate general there (and the procedures to get a green card) are intertwined, and ... well ... "somewhere else" sometimes involves complex borders that aren't so easy to cross.

      I've been there...to swear that I was available to be married. It was odd, to say the least.

    Sounds wonderful. I can't quite wrap my head around it as I am hoping to just get to Maine from Ohio next summer and maybe Lake Erie this summer.

      Believe me, I totally understand you. I am a Cajun girl from rural Louisiana. I didn't even know the world was this big until I one day found myself teaching in Naples. It's been nearly eleven years now.
