Today was the day we decided to use a little spare time to send back some purchases we made over the last couple of days. This included a book on the Vatican
containing much better photographs than we could ever take, a lovely scarf Katie got from a street vendor, some Italian keyrings and three pieces of Positano pottery depicting scenes of the Amalifi area.
So far we have been waiting for around 20 minutes and I have been able to write this blog. There are a total of 26 counters and only 17 have operators. Of that only one is a postal counter, the others are doing a vast array of tasks. Bill payments and processing forms, who knows what forms are for but it looks like every one in the city fills one in! It is a busy place with lots of people waiting.
We finally had our number called and then by the time we go to the counter we had missed our turn, but thanks to Katies persistence we were able to get served next. The operator was just fantastic as have all Italians we have dealt with, by trying to start with a little Italian then moving to English helps.
