MONDAY 
POMPEII

There is a tavern in the town (in the town). Okay, that is a very old song and I don't think anyone other than my father is going to get that one.
Now these are some real dirty pictures. This is in the brothel, or lupanare. The frescos depicted the kind of services you could buy. This looks like a kind of woman on top sort of deal.
Can't really tell what this position might be. It doesn't look like they are, well, connected.
Hmm, a little from behind action.
Looks like the same here but perhaps with a little added spanking.
Imagine having to do it on a stone bed and pillow. I hope they at least had some sort of mattress on top.
I'm no archeologist, but this looks like a crapper to me.
As I exited the brothel (I've never said those words before), this tour guide recognized me and handed me the map I had dropped way back in the Forum.
All good Romans used to bring their recyclables here to the bins.
Here's another restaurant, the Thermopolium of Lucius Vetutius Placidus. This is a big one divided into two spaces, one for public customers and another for private family use.
This is a corridor under the stands of...


...the amphitheatre.
Gladiators and animals would have fought here on the outskirts of town.
Anyone know what this says? All I can make out is "honor", "spectacular" and something about a colon.
Next to the amphitheatre is the palestra. So many Big Five basketball games were played here between Penn, Villanova, Temple, St. Joseph's and LaSalle. No, wait. I think that's a different thing.
The Teatro Piccolo. It's a small theatre.
Little fat Santa holding up a block.
This is the bigger theatre.
I think they must still use it because I doubt this is an original seating sign. After all, there are no Roman numerals on it.
Looking down on the stage area from the cheap seats.
There is a modern city of Pompei over there. I guess they lost the extra 'i' at the end in the eruption.
When the Greek god Zeus used to visit Pompeii, he brought his RV to this place.
