Civitavecchia is a gateway to Rome.

I was in Civitavecchia on my first honeymoon

( one husband,several honeymoons.)I dropped a very expensive bottle of whisky at the airport, my husband laughed it off, I knew then I married the right man),

 so when on a cruise several years ago we docked in C, I did not feel like  going on a tour to Rome,  almost 2 hours drive each way , and stayed to explore C.Ugly, dirty little town that has nothing nice to say for itself, where I couldn't even get a decent cup of coffee. Concequently I refused to go on  a cruise that included this port. Until this cruise.

The town seemed even uglier and dirtier. But I got a wi-fi in my phone!    No, not free access,that is very rare in Italy, but I got it and finally was able to sit down on a bench in the shade under a tree and communicate with family and friends. 

Internet on Celebrity Silhouette is abominable.Even a 20 US DOLLAR upgrade a day does not make the slightest difference.

 In Naples I walked into a  Samsung store and asked if I could transfer data from one Samsung  to another Samsung.  I could not. How utterly disgraceful.  

So in the twopenny-halfpenny little town  I could use my phones comfortably. 

Thank you, Civitavecchia.
