This ancient Roman amphitheater is what's special! I love this picture because of the setting. This enormous piece of history is nestled among modern buildings and normal streets. This was taken from a bridge overlooking the entire thing. It was a truly breathtaking view because just a few hundred yards from this amphitheater lies the Mediterranean Sea.
Hiking the cliffs of the Mediterranean was incredible. While we were sitting down and enjoying the view, it occurred to us that while we were having an experience as incredible as that, everyone we knew back home was most likely at work or in class. It is quite surreal to put your life in perspective like that. Sometimes all it takes is something blue and beautiful to make you really think.
Well, that place looks absolutely incredible.
ReplyDeleteGlad you found the cliff walk!
It is very interesting that the Roman ruin is right there in the middle of everything. Kind of like the pyramid in the middle of Lima, Peru.
You just never know what you will discover!
I do love the photos. It is nice to see where you've been.
Love, Mom
