Thanks, guys. Mother nature gave me a lot to work with.

Here are some more from that evening. You can see how the beach started to fill up even though we were quite a ways from the pier. I realize that some of these are pretty dark, but I was most interested in the skies.










These guys were pretty interesting. They walked by me once and I could hear them talking, they were speaking English but very heavily accented like they might have come from the continent, they all smiled at me, I smiled back, and after they had passed I noticed that the guy with the wifebeater and the white cap (who didn't have his shirt on at the time) had large tattoos up and down his back. It took a few seconds to register that they were two AK-47s tattooed next to each other - the way you fit two shoes together in a shoebox.
One of the neat things about Naples is that, like Orlando, it is a big tourist destination. But unlike Orlando, the destination is the city itself. So you are immersed in people from different places - speaking different languages, wearing different clothes - all the time.
Anway, on with the pictures...







And this is from earlier in the day, but I figure everybody loves a hot bikini babe.
