Pompeii 2017


Back in 2017 we visited Pompeii in Italy. You may remember it was covered in volcanic ash from Vesuvius in AD79. Effectively it became a time capsule.

Being just a few years after my 2013 stroke I was unsure if I could get around. I was fine. 

What struck me was how similar really life was 2000 years ago. There were shops, takeaways, streets, homes just like now. People were really the same.
