Ostia Antica

There is also a Pyramid in Rome and I am not sure why that is there but it did show me where the train station to Ostia is.  We bought extra tickets to go to the beach which is two stops further on but we never made it there as the ancient Ostia site, which is the original Port for Rome, was so huge. It was covered in silt and now has been unearthed. We spent four hours touring the ruins with our guided ear piece. This can cause you to slow down.  As with all these ruins the good stuff has previously been removed. They had one indoor section where some of the statues were now placed.
Bronwyn gave us the tip but the secret is now out as there were many people Rome-ing!
