We live near ground central for the protests. The reports about the garbage are, if anything, not descriptive enough. We were blocked from the main road from my house to my workplace for about 9 days by the protests. Last week, they blocked my other way out of the housing area. Just as I decided to move the family, the police came in and cleared the blockade. Now, it is hit and run protests that block us from getting around to the various areas that I have to go for my job.
Just tonight, I followed one of the “Blue Light Vehicles” (generally, a NATO flag officer) in order to make it around the protests. Talk about interesting driving. You have never lived until you have driven in Naples!
Got to make the drive a couple times last year. Naples should be the jewl of Europe, amazing city sans-trash and Camora grafiti.
Are many businesses and restaurants closed?
