Day 16

Saturday being our day of departure from the Villa, we drove one mile over to visit the ruins of Cumae, said ruins consisting of several temples and Vergil's cave of the sibyl. As our resident Latin scholar would mutter, the fake one. Which is good, considering how disappointing it was (it wasn't even a true cave!)

Yet exploring ruins is never a bad thing, so our disappointment quickly vanished. Don't-fall signs and fences were ignored and clambered over as well, which is always fun.





Sadly, I was not able to climb that ancient staircase. There were only bits of two stairs left, and they looked slightly precarious.


After some cavorting, we boarded the bus to go back home.
