Day 255  April 16  2015  Agerola Italy


We spent a full day visiting Pompeii and Herculaneum It was very interesting to see in person the stuff that I have only seen in TV documentaries.  We enjoyed walking through the streets and you could almost imagine what life must have been like for the inhabitants of the town in 79 AD when the eruption happened.  The plaster casts of the bodies were very cool.
