Pompeii 龐貝古城 (Part I)



Pompeii 龐貝古城

I had read many stories about the history of the ancient city Pompeii.
I was so keen therefore and ecstatic in having the opportunity to visit it.
We were lucky to have a very funny guide and she showed us all the main sights of Pompeii.
We came at the right time because the rain had just stopped and the sun came out
and we were rewarded with blue skies and white clouds.

我讀過很多有關龐貝古城的歷史故事。因此,我是如此渴望和欣喜有機會參觀這裡。
我們很幸運,有一個非常有趣的導遊,她給我們介紹了所有龐貝古城的主要景點。
我們來得十分合時,因為雨剛停,太陽出來了,我們穫報以藍天和白雲。

    If I am not mistaken, the city of Pompeii was destroyed by an earthquake isn't? Very blue skies. My kind of skies! :)

    Is that Mt Vesuvius in Photo No 6?

    A while ago, I watched TV programme from BBC called "10 Things about Volcanoes that you don't know" Mt Vesuvius was one the the 10!

    I remember the music in this post!
    It's called Celtic Dream, right?

    I used to do Irish Dance when I did my undergraduate studies in Scotland! We used to practise Irish Dance with this music.
    Have you heard another one called Siamsa from the same album?
    We used that a lot for our dance club too!

    Go to Youtube to check out the dance about Siamsa. It's fun!!!

  9. Thanks Mei Teng,
    Pompeii was destroyed and completely buried during a long catastrophic
    eruption of the volcano Mount Vesuvius spanning two days in 79 AD.
    I will have a some description about it in the next post!

  10. To London Caller,
    Yes, that's Mt. Vesuvius, a volcano that destroyed the Pompeii city...
    You're right, the song I use is Celtic Dream.
    The Siamsa dance is really funny, very oldie dance...
