an island...............

thisi is isla grosa (or big island), one of the many volcanic islands in and around our smaller sea...............

isla grosa is the main focus of attention of all the bathers that go to estacio beach...........her outline is simple and delicate and, although she is a small island, she looks pretty big from the beach as it is quite close to the shoreline................

she is a protected natural space and no human can set foot on it but the military forces, which own her...............

:(

i have photographed her thousands of times and never get bored.................

re: the escherian hotel
(what an apt characterization)

it definitely took G/ 2 days to master it,
i kind of got it
and ,
even though i tried to be as clear as possible
i wasn't sure i could adequately describe it...

as far as the cab of the funicular, maximum 10
but no one seemed happy with more than 8 on board

i imagine they must have to have a complete set of spare parts on hand,
including maybe an additional cab
in the event of a problem

re pompeii: we both thoroughly enjoyed it
(and g/ was skeptical)
but we had a private tour arranged through a friend of mine
and our guide was wonderful.

did not see any such figurines
would no doubt have bought one if i had
post a pic sometime?

i will go back and answer more questions as i get more caught up
but about the bees in the garden:
i LOVE them,
they are truly only interested in the flowers,
they come in all shapes and sizes
and we purposely planted flowers to attract them (and butterflies which there are less of)

the only thing i am afraid of is is stepping on one
the ground cover that we planted
also has little flowers
so they hover above the ground

i have done that in the past
and it's not pleasant
