I sent a postcard of Pompei Excavations from Naples to my daughter. It has two 50 lira stamps, and says Via Aerea in the postmark

Dear D.

These little cherubs remind me of you when you were a baby and of your cousin now. Daddy and Mummy are on their way home now and will see you soon. I went to see Pompeii yesterday and also Almalfi and Sorrento

Love, Mummy

P.S. I got grandmummy's letter too.


After we got finished with Pompeii we went down the Amalfi Drive to Sorrento.
