Yeah, I deleted it some years ago and never regretted

Yes, the coastline here is great , though in the summer it can be quite crowded lol

But yes, here there were many important naval routes for the Roman army (and other armies), and anyone even remotely interested in ruins of any kind will be very happy.

Taranto, near Dubrovnik :



or even better, for scuba diving Tunnel of Prvić:

Beautiful.. There is always something so magical about History and archaeology... Taking ones mind back and imagining being there in that time and moment..

Yes, exactly! I think that's why I took Latin lol....I could spend days in the archeological museums. My family had problems getting me out of there, since I'd spend hours and hours there. It's fascinating.

Yeah, even looking closely at the stones looking at the cutting marks and imagining them doing the work, or something seemingly simple as a small hole and what its purpose was...

Turkey had some great places for that also, We have areas here of archaeological importance including hieroglyphs on some of our rocks that are not of Maori origin...

You're right, the Adriatic Sea is pretty. ...Wait, Booya, you live near Italy?!

I cannot speak for a history museum, but art museums are really cool.

I've never studied history.

I find it magical and fascinating... However not via standard historical academics. I like to follow the trails myself.. As i realised when younger, Much of what i was being taught in the history class room didnt add up, so i switched off.

The Whole Columbus thing for one really didn't make sense in my mind at the time for a number of reasons.

and are you feeling a little more relaxed Lillikoi? I know it will be a sensory bomb for a while..

Good almost lunchtime, everyone.

Boo ate something she shouldn't have and threw up last night and then again this morning. I cleaned it up last night, but not this morning. I cleaned her food and water dish and swept cat hair off the stairs.

I'm also re-starting Edge of Eternity from the beginning; it's a lot weirder and more awesome this time. It starts with the immortal words"'I am a feather!"
Would anyone like to know more?

I ordered an expensive camera yesterday. I'm expecting it will help with an important project, so it's needed, but spending a lot of money like that still makes me nervous. I hope it will be worth it.

Yeh, I am. Now that I've been spending some time by myself this morning. I think I should lay back on the socializing for a little while.

Not that that's a bad thing, but since all my friends are autistic that adds up to about three hours of nonstop talking. That, and I feel like that these past few days have been quite a bombardment of information.

I know that I've been known to sleep for sixteen hours following an anime convention, so perhaps I should try not to overload myself with information. I know I am the type of person who tries to do a lot of different things at once, but then I end up getting nothing done at all. I have decided to set myself a schedule for the week where I assign myself two things to work on each day. I think I'm going to rotate my hobbies on each day, I have a little bit of time for each.

Unfortunately, it is impossible for me to keep up on all my Youtube series, while watching anime and working on three different RPs, and singing and writing and keeping in touch with my friends. It's a bit hard to let that go. At night, my brain just wants to keep going and get everything done, so it's hard to fall asleep!

I know what you mean about history class. I did take history class in the tenth grade, but there was so much to cover that it all got mixed up in my head. I'm curious, how do you learn about these types of things? What do you mean by "follow the trails yourself?"

"Cause it's a bittersweet symphony this life.
Trying to make ends meet, trying to find some money then you die."

It seems like that sometimes.....

You're not wrong Kraftie!

Really? What origin are they? Google seems to suggest Egipt, and to some civilisation of people who lived there before Maori arrived.

We have here so many Roman artefacts at the seaside

On the ancient forum of Roman Iadera, you can see the pillars of the former Roman pagan temple inbuilt into what is now the Church of St Donatus. I could live on that site, especially since the archaeological museum is across the church.!

Lol yes I do They're our neighbours, I live in Croatia, though unfortunately far from the seaside.

Art museums are fun as well - not sure what sort of art museums you have there, but last I saw here was some exhibition on Baroque paintings from Venice. Quite cool
