Pompei

Pompei was amazing. I have some pictures of my adventures there. This is Nicole and I strolling along one of the perfectly preserved streets.



We went into a house and here I am coming out of the very short doorway. This makes me think that people in Pompei were not very tall.



Here I am standing by some ancient painting on the wall of the Pompei baths. The baths also housed some very well preserved dead bodies that were put in little plastic cases. The people were completely solid and covered in ash.



Here I am ordering from Ms. Nicole the bartender. Nicole also acted as our Pompei tourguide, she had the book and all. Good thing she can double as a tourguide and a bartender, that way we can drink and not get lost.



Ciao,
Ema
