Italy house hunt

Last week we went house hunting.  We looked at 17 places.  That's a lot of work; even though we had a guide and he drove us around everywhere-Thank God!!
 All but 3 of the places were not furnished. 
Definition of 'unfurnished':  no furniture, (frequently) no light fixtures, and no kitchen accessories at all-including no cabinets. Empty, empty, empty.
  That's fine except the fact that on top of it taking a while to get into a place we like, it would take a lot more time to get it set up for us to live in it. 
  Ugh. we have only been in a hotel for a week and a half and I'm all ready to be in a house or at least something with a kitchen-believe it or not, it's more work to go out every day to eat, than to cook at home. haha
    I hope I'm not coming off as if I didn't have a good time looking at the houses.  I had so much fun with that! I would like to go see more places..hmm..not sure that we will though. 
I loved several of the houses-they were huge! and had lots of light.  A few of the places had amazing views..ahhhh...  We even looked at a dwelling in a castle-esque building. 
   We did look at a place here in the city.  A 3 bedroom apartment that is fully furnished and would be totally ready for us to move in to Nov 1st.  It is in the most chaotic part of the city but it might be the best option for us since we won't be in Italy all that long and it would be easier to get around to places,etc.  The other part to it is that Aaron's co-worker will be taking over the house right after us and he feels it would be best for him to be right in the city too.
   Well, we haven't made a solid decision yet.  The one place that we all LOVED is in a really bad part of Naples-I guess there is a strong mafia presence and lots of prostitutes? ugh..

   I hope you enjoy the included pictures :]
