... find all sorts of ruins there. Preserved in situ are seven column bases. Also remains of the basilica, remains of a square and an island of houses surrounded by streets, one of which is stoned. It is funny to walk through all this because all around you are modern apartments and office blocks.

... in any kind of shoe emergency, but my only pair is getting quickly worn out, and we needed an excuse to walk around in the cooler alleyways, slowly enjoying some ice-cream-- only to be met by empty stares and thinly veiled smirks, as I asked the clerk what selection of 48 size shoes they might have.
