This summer I had a journey to Italy and spent a day in Pompei.
Everyone knows what happened with the city. So I'll give you an idea of what remains now.
This is how the tragedy happened according to Karl Brullov ("Russian Museum" in Saint Pete).
At the entrance of the city we saw many nice trees and lawns. The city itself looked like it hardly survived NATO bombings.
We came in and saw wide avenues, shattered houses, idle aborigines (it was Sunday)...
golf fields...
beggars...
Graffiti...(they say it means "welcome", but Have! sounds awesome)
people, taking mud-bath...
parks, very shabby ones I'd say (we have Lenin's park in here is much more beautiful)...
The sun was scorching and the thirsty tortured us. We spotted a well...
and rushed there...
To be continued...(?)
