Home for 2000 years
The Italians have a habit of not knocking down old buildings but renovating and adapting them, so you could live in a home that is basically 2000 years old!

Via a Ostia
My favourite road Cristoforo Colombo that stretches from Rome to the sea at Ostia and has been the route for 2000 years for Emperors in chariots.

Away to the sea
The trees go all the way to the sea - suddenly there is the Mediterranean and Ostia, as you reach the top of the hill.

Sibilla2
Beautiful restaurant on the site of the temple that was the Oracle of Sybil for Roman Emperors who wanted chicken entrails examined before invading Britain, the opposite of Brexit.

Work In Progress
Work In Progress says the sign. Reminds me of my Bible Two novel, where he tries to bring a mannequin to life (stolen for the film).
