Pompeii

Nothing prepare me for this place. I felt like I almost literally went back in time 2000 years.



That's ashes stuck to that door.


On the train from Sorrento to the Pompeii station. The train station is almost entirely dedicated to to ancient site even though the train that serves it is intra city Naples metro.

  1. Apparently Herculaneum is smaller but more impressive.

    Vesuvius really dominates. Look at the population density today. Can you imagine if it blew like it did back then?

    That would be out of this world. It's like science fiction that actually occurred.
