I looked up from below and I knew Mt. Vesuvius was going to grow. It will be so slow but i knew it was going to grow.
I looked on the internet at its crater but from here it looks even greater.

Orphée
In 79 A.D. on the 24 of August, everything was normal (except for some aerth quakes, not long ago) and people in Pompeii were finishing their siesta,snoring like a sleeping bear.
Suddenly Vesuvius started working and roaring like (as Romans say) Vulcan, the god of fire. Smoke was coming out, the people had wide eyes as if they were going to pop out of their heads and their mouths as big as a hippo's! They only knew that their homes, thinking it would be safe, (though it wasn't) others tried to run away !
