Day 6

Ruins of Pompei

Enjoying the sunset on the Ferry

Sunset on the Ferry

May 30th, day 6 we went to Pompei.  We woke up around 6:15, ate breakfast, and left around 7:30 for our guided tour of Pompei at 8am.  This city was so interesting to see.  Everything looked so old, but it looked as if it had never been touched.  Everything was so well preserved.  I definitely took a ton of pictures at this site.  We got to see a brothel, which was basically the prostitute house of the time.  We also had a very interesting tour guide named Marco.  We joked about it for about a week after that he asked himself questions like, "And you ask me why, Marco?"  Overall, Pompei was an interesting experience and I'm glad I got to see it.  Around 6:30pm that night we boarded our ferry to Greece!  We were in a very small room, and this is when we discovered that you can't flush toilet paper!  Of course we forgot the first few times, oops!  When we got settled into our tiny rooms, Kristin and I went to the lounge where we started to watch a movie.  We also explored the outside deck of the ferry, where we took pictures of the beautiful sunset.  Later on we met up with the rest of the girls and we hung out at the lounge again for a while and got some snacks to eat.  After that, almost everyone in our group went to check out the Disco.  There was nobody there but us but it was so much fun!  We all stood in a circle and took turns doing very 'interesting' dancing, including the 'crocodile'.  We had a lot of fun, and later went back to our rooms to sleep.
