That's the whole team at Castellammare.

The time here so far has been going by very quickly until today. Today was flot. Flot is not fun and is not fast. It is just flot.

We sorted ecofacts all day today, picking out the tiny deposits of bone, shell, fish scales, charcoal, etc. for further analysis by specialists. It was interesting and kind of fun, but after staring at a plate of tiny gravel for four hours you get very tired of it. All in all, it was interesting.

We spent the 4th working most of the day. I had my last day of surveying for a while, but we finally finished the fountain we had been working on! After work, we went to the symphony in the ancient amphitheater in Pompei. It was incredible. The music was fantastic, and the theater is beautiful! The night was capped off by some late fire works over the ruins (Italians are insane with their fireworks). I hope everyone at home had fun with their barbecue and the lake, but I wouldn't trade our day for anything!
