Day Two - Herculaneum and Naples

After enjoying our first night in Sorrento, we started the morning by taking a bus to visit the ruins of Herculaneum, one of the cities buried by the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in 79 AD. In the afternoon, we went to the Naples Archaeological Museum, which houses many of the items found in the excavations at Herculaneum and Pompeii. As you'll see in the photo album, the mosaics and bronzes were especially stunning. After enjoying another day of perfect weather, we were treated to this beautiful sunset over the Bay of Naples. Tomorrow morning, we'll be spending the day at Pompeii before heading to Rome.
