We take groups to Itally and if we have a free day from the group, while in Rome, we usually catch the train out to Ostia to visit the ruins and get some seafood. We love it and think it's better than Pompei, since more of it has been rebuilt, so you can better see what the city was like. Plus the crowds are much less.Mike & Tammyhttp://valhalla433.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36756953.post-24572104140713739232011-06-21T11:53:49.057-04:002011-06-21T11:53:49.057-04:00wow is right - what an amazing historic site, i...wow is right - what an amazing historic site, i'm glad you persevered & made it there (and back) safely (i didn't like that description of the motorway at all). i was thinking the same thing as i viewed the photos, how impressively intact and sturdy looking the structures still are - incredible. today's buildings and homes are beyond shoddy in comparison. looks as if the weather was splendid, too. you made excellent use of your day, and were even nice enough to share it with us :) grazie!katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00518178249956943570noreply@blogger.com
