Real, Real Old Stuff

I've always been interested in history, but over the next few weeks, I am going to get up real close and personal with some really old stuff.

The family is going on a cruise of the eastern Mediterranean with stops in Rome, Alexandria, pyramids, Jerusalem, Turkey, and three places in Greece, including Athens.

We think of things as old here in the US when they're over 300 years old, but lets try thousands.

I remember once while touring Innsbruck, Austria's old town, when the guide said, "That does it for the Old Town. Across the street, you see New Town, which was built in the 1400s. New, indeed.

Rome Episodes is perhaps one of the best historical TV shows there ever was and one of the best HBO has ever produced.The script is intelligent and realistic, with some profanity, violence, and decadence.When i Watch Rome Episodes Online on edogo.com firstime then i decided to Download rome episodes from edogo.com because it's a very good show for alltime. Really i'm in love of this show.
