5L Day Three - Herculaneum






Today we said goodbye to our hotel and a joyous hello to Herculaneum - the sea side resort of the Ancient Romans. We had a great time exploring the ruins, which are better preserved then those at Pompeii. We played a game in the palestra, the training area for gladiators; we even went to the bathhouse (boys and girls separate.. of course!) to learn how the Ancient Romans relaxed.
We had a great time exploring the beautiful houses, taking in the wonder and awe of the gorgeous frescoes and mosaics and learning all about how the Ancient Romans lived.
After a tiring but exciting three days, it was time for the ride back home and a bit of our own relax time!
