Pompeii


Today is the anniversary of the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius. I'm very interested in ancient history, mainly Rome and Egypt. Pompeii and the Etruscans are two subjects about which I have several books.

I totally forgot about the significance of the date until I went to bing.com before to look up something. I also just like looking at the daily pictures. Even though I prefer Google to search, Bing does have that one cool feature with the picture.

This isn't my own picture, although I hope to go to Italy one day. I found it on SPQR 360
