For today's outing, we began by:

walking to the train station, admiring the views along the way

to arrive in Salerno and pick up a map

before stopping at Bar Moka for some coffee

to fortify ourselves for the marvel of the Minerva Gardens

with lots of plants

and a nifty medieval classification system.

Then we walked around

admiring the views

before walking some more

admiring urban gardens,

all while trying to find the museum of the oldest medical school in the West. We asked a postman, a policeman, two old women and two middle-aged men; got a ride from one of the men and his mom, before learning the museum has been closed.

So then we recovered with the juicest peach ever, along with some excellent pears

before visiting the main church

with some colorful mosaics

after which I decorated my shirt with chocolate gelato

and pouted on the boardwalk

consoled myself with making David pose while eating more fruit

and dog-watching

before heading back to the train

and a dinner of bufala

and olives

on the beach.
