Laura and I posing as Statues
We have a picture just like this one two years ago in Pompeii Today was a really nice day. It was around 55 or so out today so we decided to get out and see the sites. Laura, Jordan, and I decided to go to this ancient town called Ostia Antica about 30 minutes by train towards the coast of Italy.
Ostia Antica was the port city of Rome. First used to defend the city from invaders and then for commercial purposes, Ostia Antica played an important role in Ancient Rome. After the fall of Rome and the change in direction of the Tiber River, Ostia Antica was abandoned but well preserved due to it being covered in mud.
This archeological site is equal or greater in size then the famous city of Pompeii and therefore have some pictures to share with you all.
