Pompeii

Today we got on another subway that took us to Pompeii. Its a good thing that the train station is literally across the street from our hotel. And its not noisy either. We bought our lunches from some stands that were siting just outside of the entrance to Pompeii. they were also selling some absolutely gigantic lemons the likes of which you've probably never seen before. they were about as big as footballs.

Pompeii was just like Herculaneum except much bigger and it also had things like a colosseum and a theater. There were many pots lying around that the Romans used to store food in and some of the streets had some pretty deep chariot ruts in them.We ate our lunch in there (that's right food and drinks are allowed) and left after about four hours.

We went to dinner at Michele's again, personally I think that their marinara is much better than their margarita. On the way back to the hotel we found a gelato place and had some (yaahoo!)
