Capri , Sorrento & Pompeii

Capri (ancient Capreae), island, south central Italy,
at the entrance of the Bay of Naples. Limestone cliffs,
rise from the sea in the east; Monte Solaro, in the west,
the highest point on the island, is 586 m (1,923 ft) above sea level.
The town of Capri, 136 m (450 ft) high.

Sorrento, resort town on the southern shore of the Bay of Naples,
in the Campania region of southern Italy.
Spread out on terraces rising to 60 m (200 ft) above the sea,
lies on the coast road between Naples and Amalfi.
Pompeii is a ruined and partially buried Roman town-city near modern Naples
in the Italian region of Campania, in the territory of the comune of Pompei.
Along with Herculaneum, its sister city, Pompeii was destroyed, and completely buried,
during a long catastrophic eruption of the volcano Mount Vesuvius spanning two days in 79 AD.


The volcano collapsed higher roof-lines and buried Pompeii under 60 feet of ash and pumice,
and it was lost for nearly 1,700 years before its accidental rediscovery in 1748.
Since then, its excavation has provided an extraordinarily detailed insight into the
life of a city at the height of the Roman Empire. Today, this UNESCO World Heritage Site
is one of the most popular tourist attractions of Italy,

The music "The Way We Were" seems to be the most appropriate as its lilting melody
fitted the picturesque views. Also I took the liberty of extrapolating the "the way we were"
as Pompeii was preserved so well it brings you back in time to how people lived all those years ago
