A Friday off means go visit a touristy place to avoid weekend crowds so we decided to head to Caserta Palace (a Unesco, World Heritage Site). Only a few miles from our home and an easy half day exploration in mind, off we went in hopes of a nice day, what we found was far … Continue reading Caserta Palace

From Capua to Capua
We live in ancient Capua which is now called Santa Maria Capua Vetere and is about 10 minutes from now Capua (I know it's a bit confusing) so we took a day to go see the small town a few minutes away and it is beautiful.

First Trip to Rome
