Looking at Naples

Star Best Naples 271In the spirit of Kim Jong Il Looking at Things and yesterday’s post on looking at things in New York, here are some things I looked at on my recent visit to Naples.

◄ Starting with a Star Best Café, that’s in the spirit of the Stars & Bucks Café I came across in Ramallah on my Palestine trip.

 

 

Then there was this street stall selling toilet paper featuring Italian politicians (I bet the Berlusconi one is popular), football teams and other appropriate illustrations. ▼

They’re proof that Italians really have style, €16 for watch and silicon strap and you can buy a bunch of different colours and swap the watch from one to another. ▼

Maureen got a red one, seen at one of the Piazza Bellini cafes.  ▼
