Train fares and tariffs / Re: First Time Europe Travel Help London, Paris, Pisa, Rome, Venice

Thank you for your prompt response. 
Here is what I have so far.
Depart Miami 7/31 Arrive London morning of 8/01
Paris: 8/03-8/05
Rome: 8/05-8/08
Naples/Pompeii: 08/08-08/10
Florence/Pisa/Venice: 08/10-08-13
traveling back to paris and london for flight 8/15 on
I do want to state that this is a tentative itinerary. I do not want to see all of Europe in such a short timeframe. I will be traveling with my 15 year-old daughter. This is our first trip to Europe and we are very excited. I do want to point out, that within each stop there is only one sight or attraction that we decided on. For example, in London we want to visit the Stonehenge. I scheduled 2 days there, so we could fall where the wind blows us. In Paris, she wants to eat pastries from a "real" French Bakery and I want to see the Eiffel Tower. Naples, we want to visit Pompeii. I read that Naples is where we should stay and take a train/bus to Pompeii. We could make day trip there and explore Naples then move on to the next city. We are very flexible. If you see better alternatives or methods to enhance our schedule by cost, time/length of travel, or any other factor, please let me know. Which train ticket should I purchase? Both my daughter and I have a ISIC card, if it is of any help. Again, thank you in advance.
