Pompeii by Sofia

My favorite part of Pompeii was the baths and Mount Vesuvius.  Mount Vesuvius was a volcano that erupted and destroyed Pompeii.  We could see Mount Vesuvius out in the distance.  The volcano erupted in 79 AD.  The bath was like a public spa.  The baths had a large room that had a hole that led to the outside.  You may say it had no ceiling.  It had the hole so that the steam would not stay inside the whole room.  The roads were interesting too because they were like large pebbles so that when it rains, you would just step on the pebbles and the rain would just go through the tracks.
