Great clouds roll over Mt. Vesuvius |
Another musical reference in the title....but it is a great song by Bastille!
It was a little bit disturbing glancing out the window and seeing "great clouds roll over the hills" of Mt. Vesuvius! Thankfully it was a thunderstorm and not the volcano making a reappearance!
Pompeii was a fascinating place to visit, and we absolutely loved our guide Lello from
http://toursofpompeii.com/tourofpompeii.html. He was entertaining and extremely knowledgeable; even other private tour guides clearly had respect for Lello!
It is very amazing to see this city from over 2000 years ago "come to life" again. The engineering of the city from that era is incredible.
They still have more to excavate and discover in Pompeii, but there is no active work happening.
