So yes, I obviously have done a poor job at keeping up my end of my New Year's resolution bargain. This past weekend, I went to Cyprus, but haven't written anything yet about my trip to Italy or time spent in Greece with my family. So here we are. I am going to make this brief since it's been so long but I must tell you, my birthday weekend was mind-blowing. We stayed with Lucy in Naples but took Saturday to go to Pompeii and Sorrento. Let me tell you, Pompeii is definitely the coolest historical site I have ever seen. You could actually see what life would have been like. Na and Lauren had come with us for the weekend but separated from Lucy, Carly, and I at Pompeii. We nicknamed ourselves tour crashers because we kept 'joining' other tours to learn more. I included some of my pictures here of this magical place. Below, you will see the symbol that guided men to the brothels, the inside of a brothel room, a lead pipe, a bath, two houses, a theater, an alleyway, a tavern, a pizza oven, a window, bodies of those who didn't survive, and a well-preserved painting.
