Everybody gangsta til the earth starts spewing magma! I hope I get the chance to visit someday -- maybe the AI superfund can give everyone free trips to UNESCO heritage sites, the way American school kids get a discount trip to Disney World.
If you make it to Pompeii, do plan a visit to the Archaeological Museum in Naples, which is where all the good artefacts are on display! (When I did, I had such a flashback as these artefacts were literally all the illustrations in my high school Latin textbooks.)
Amazing to think of everything buried by the ash. Especially the things that were unearthed partially intact
Thank you for these and enjoy the one and only Aix en Provence!
I lived for two years at 13 Cours Mirabeau in a balcony apartment
above the cafe Aux Deux Garcons. I have not been back in decades
but heard that, sadly, a fire broke out in the cafe and my apartment
building burned down. Now I wish very much I had a post card!
Best wishes!
I walked across that square several times, and I admit to having had a good time! Cheers!

Ah, that's a good use of UN funding, right there!
