Time For a Postcard 7

My wife’s mother told her – ‘never walk up a volcano, your footsteps will provoke an eruption’.

So we didn’t climb Vesuvius.

Beryl may have been talking metaphorically but there is no point in taking un-necessary risks; so, instead we walked the path of The Gods.

Some of it.

It was crowded.

It’s a popular walk.

Especially amongst people with no sense of humour - or at least people who didn’t appreciate my cheerful greetings and jokes.

We also climbed Epotome.

Later.

It turns out that my wife doesn’t like hills.

Going up, she starts going down.

There’s a moment in the process when her legs are moving but she is, in fact, stationary.

It’s quite a phenomenon.


Locals rushed out and took photos.
