July 7

I can not even begin to comprehend how old this city is. It's so hard to wrap my mind around everything that happened here 3,000 years ago...it was real...and not just a story!

Pompeii was incredible! Hot and crowded, but incredible! They have been uncovering this lost city since the 18th century and it is still an active archaeological site today. In fact the volcano is still very active today as well. It's not a matter of if it will erupt again, but a matter of when it will erupt again, and yet, despite this city that was completely destroyed some 3,000 years ago...there are millions of people living in the red zone of Mount Vesuvius.

Why? Because they're crazy.


We spent the evening exploring yet another city tucked into a mountain but this time right on the water! 

WOAH Sorrento is gorgeous!!
