7/7/13 Intrigued by the story of Pompeii, we decide to head to the scene of the crime...Mt Vesuvius! It's been a stinking hot day & we have walked our sox off, but when in Rome...

An interesting bus trip allows us to leave our kidneys back at the pick up point...we won't be needing them for the next few hours. Finally after a big climb where the boys had a quiet bet that I wouldn't make it...bastards...(I was a bit worried myself!), we reach the summit of the still active volcano.
