Thursday we docked in Naples, and while the kids slept in after the long day in Rome, Fuzzy and Debbie went ashore to visit the Castel Nuovo. This is a fabulous monument.

We'd been buying a newspaper in each country for a friend back home, and in Naples we bought a TV Guide in Italian. The cover had the cast of ER, which includes Alex Kingston who bears a great resemblence to Debbie.

We had fun with the shop keeper when we pointed to the photo of Alex Kingston on the cover and then pointed to Debbie. His face lit up and he asked us in Italian is it was really her.

I grinned and said no, but he didn't believe me. I'm sure he went home to his family that night and said he'd met a movie star.
