Pompeii by all all three boys



We caught a train to Pompeii. Here are some thoughts:
Flynn: The dead bodies that were there were very cool and weird. A volcano erupted and they were covered in ash and died. There were lots of wild dogs in Pompeii. A sign said they had diseases.
Campbell: I liked all the rooms with the different artifacts. There was a building which was the public baths. One room was a sauna, another room was the pool. We walked further up and we saw ruins that were a bread shop with an oven that looked like a pizza oven. Some of the bodies were quite creepy. Most of them were covered in dust and plaster so it looked like fake bodies but some of them the plaster had worn away so you could see the bones. There was one with the teeth showing.
Josh: All of the dead bodies were in the potion they were when they were covered in ash. To help keep the positions they filled the holes of the bodies with plaster. Because of this you could see how they tried to hide or cover their mouths when the ash came through.
