Return to Italy 2025

Charlie and I flew to Naples a week ago, and we are now settled into our apartment in Potenza where we will stay (on and off) until near the end of May. This is the same apartment in the centro storico (historical center) where we stayed in 2022 – it’s great to be back! Charlie has set up his shop where he will continue work on his replica of a 16th century watch, and I have started discussions with my colleague Sergio Longhitano at the University of Basilicata in Potenza.  Here are some photos of Naples and Potenza. In the next post I will share a few gems from a Naples art museum.

A small restaurant in Naples. Images of Vesuvius are popular.
A typical bustling street in the centro storico.

Quiet mid-afternoon lunch time in the center of old Potenza.

Our apartment is at the end of this small alley (the 2nd-story balconies with fake ivy).
