Today was a huge day. We set off early, and spent the whole day, non stop looking at things, walking and exploring.
We started off by heading to the city of Pompeii. The new city is really beautiful, but that isn't why you go to Pompeii.
The old city of Pompeii was completely buried by meters of ash in 79AD and preserved underneath it for almost 2000 years. Now you can walk around the town and see the real homes and places where people lived, so so long ago, unchanged.
After Pompeii, we visited the place responsible for all the death and destruction in 79, Mt Vesuvius.
We got a bus almost to the top, but it was a decent 40 minute hike to the top, where there were just the most incredible views, not only of the still active volcano (just steaming away up there) but also over all of Napoli and the entire shoreline.
We also had a cheeky rose up there too.
Tomorrow, a bus to Rome xx
