Salerno, Italy from our balcony on the starboard side of the Queen Elizabeth
Bruno.. our guide
out of order... but the QE approaching Salerno at dawn
the sun is up. A beautiful day.
From here, after breakfast, we went to Pompeii, destroyed in AD 79 by the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius.
It was not the lava flow that buried this city; it was the ash.
