One of things I remember from my art history class is that the base around the bottom of the Parthenon is sloped. They did that so it would look level from a distance. Good for you that you were able to visit all of that history. Thanks for sharing. And there's probably a lot of bones in that Tiber river.

I think the Nashville Parthenon incorporated all these features. It's well worth a visit if it's closer than Athens. There's also a palazzo in Rome, I think in Piazza Navona, that has some counter curvature so that the horizontal lines appear straight. The trick is to look at it and then the buildings next to it.

Hey Mike, I hope you and your's are safe down there in Florida. I think there's going to be a big demand for concrete bunker houses on stilts. When we drove into Naples in 1985 we thought all the city workers must be on strike. There were piles of garbage, not messy, but stacked. No one seemed to be paying any attention to traffic lights. Later we met someone and asked them about the strike. Huh? No, this is how it always is. I guess it works, Naples seems to being doing fine. Thanks for the video.

The crowds would irritate me. I kind of want to get the impression that I am the only one. No such luck.
