Strange Places On Earth

How do you think the hazmat stuff got there?

There's a beach near Livorno (Leghorn) on the Western shore between Pisa and Rome. I heard it was beautiful, turquoise blue water. No more Caribbean for me. So one day my daughter and two granddaughters and I took a ride down there - about an hour away (no, more).
I stood there staring at this Caribbean blue water - the waves slushing back and forth. For about 5 minutes - I was stunned. There's a beach. People were all over the place - hordes.
Then I realized there was something wrong. This was not possible for this area.
My feet turned white with some kind of weird powder.
I told my daughter we should leave. Which is what we did.
On the way out of the beach area, I noticed a factory a couple of blocks away.
What do they make there?
Baking soda.
A lot of it ends up in the Mediterranean Sea.
Too bad.
It would have been nice.

Yes, that is bio-hazardous waste.
But it beats the needles and syringes the New Jersey beaches deal with by being down stream from New York City.
In Salem Mass. they dump their junk out to sea.
In the 1980's it got so bad, that downstream Swampscott and Lynn beaches, the water turned an ugly purplish and the smell matched the color.
I don't know if that was ever solved.

Here's Lynn Beach, low tide.

Is this your drinking water?

Water. The most precious commodity on earth.
Let's see if I could find a pix of that beach in Livorno...


Looks more like St. John than Italy.
But do people care?

th


NO!

Here's a really interesting place to visit if you're ever on this side of the pond.

Closeup model of the Sassi di Matera - meaning stones of Matera which are prehistoric cave dwellings in the Italian city of Matera, (in Southern Italy - in the ankle).


And also the "modern" town.
 
Italy sounds and looks like a place for weirdos.
 
Rollo,
I was having some fun reading one of your threads.
You didn't answer my question. Re Italy being weird, or something to that effect.
Is that because you're a swami and don't feel you have to?
Jethro. He's okay. No problem.
Ralph. Who's Ralph?
The cat. Yeah. I said he was one sorry lookin' cat way back when.
Wouldn't want to meet up with him in a dark alley...

So now you have 2 questions to answer:
Italy
Rumors

Think I'll get an answer?

There's a new thread called "Rumors 2" in the Lounge.
Next I'll start a thread called how to control people who think they can't be controlled.
