That model train set makes me think of the sims.
And that bread makes me think I need to clean out my fridge, before some old yogurt ends up museum-worthy.

The model train set shows what our area was like in the 50s, I live in northeast New Jersey. It goes from Hoboken across from New York City all the way to the Pennsylvania border, the waiting room is the same exact one from the Hoboken train station. And the bread was turned into ashes during the eruption, many Italian bakeries still make bread like that

I was thinking I recognized some of that. I'm in southeast PA so probably we had some of the same shops around here, back in the day!

I stayed at a hotel in Ronks and mostly drank wine, watched DVDs in my room and read. I’m a preschool teacher and just wanted to get away from kids and my family for a few days

Really cool pics, Vanessa!👍 Hope Joshua had fun.
That model train set makes me think of the Sims, too. In fact, could probably dig up objects and sets that look similar.😊

That is a good place to get away from it all.
Until recently I worked at hotels and I could use my employee discount at other locations. Sometimes I would take a "vacation" to a nearby hotel just to be a hermit for two days. One good thing about Extended Stay-- they offered me seven free nights!

Glad you guys liked the pics, we had a good time. Joshua has been obsessed with Pompeii ever since watching a documentary on the National Geographic Channel on Disney+ and the exhibition is there until May. He didn’t need the audio guide because I’m a historian who knows a lot about Rome, he loved it. And the miniature train was cool too, the train station in Hoboken still looks like that. And the movie playing at drive-in is a real one, Francis the Talking Mule was in a lot of B- movies in the 40s and 50s, he was voiced by a human. Back then, theaters would show a cartoon, a short B-movie and the feature film on the same bill

Happy birthday... now please what kind of a cake is that? Thanks for the birthday wishes. Mom made the cake, it’s a vanilla cake with white and orange icing and those are real roses. My co-teachers provided the Doritos and soda
