I took a few pics in Salerno, which is about 25 minutes from the universita. It is quite an historic area, both ancient history (it was an ancient Greek colony), and was the site of the world's first medical school in the middle ages. More recently, there was the allied troop invasion of 1944 (which my Dad was part of), which led to the northward move toward Rome, and eventual liberation of the Italian peninsula. Today, it is a cosmopolitan, smart city with shopping like I have seen in Paris and New York. The food in Salerno, however, is better....
