Ness has been updating our journey so I'm doing Pompeii itself.
First of all it must have been a Roman archeologists greatest dream to find Pompeii, so much of it is still intact that it's the best insight into the daily of the Romans.
The thing that fascinated me the most was the amount of decoration that adorned every house. It seemed as though every wall was covered in frescos and the floors with great mosaics.

Vanessa's favourite thing was the pedestrian crossings over the Roman roads (again complete with chariot groves)
Even with the long travel, it was a great day and seeing an almost complete Roman city after all the ruins was just fantastic.
Tomorrow we're off to the Vatican in our last full day in Italy!
