Travel Tonic

These are my links for July 18th 2009 through August 25th 2009:

• Mount Vesuvius Erupting in 1944 – It was 1944 and the Second World War was raging. In Italy, American airmen were stationed at Pompeii Airfield when the debris started falling, but this was no ordinary wartime air raid. The cinder and rock dropping from the sky were being sent forth by the volcano dominating the horizon: Mount Vesuvius.
• The White Horse Inn and Restaurant, Hampshire – Stopped here for lunch and a beer on the way to Stonehenge.
