We are back in Anzio, Italy, where Roman Emperor Nero had his private villa and harbor. It’s also where Anzio’s Landing took place in WWII.

Billy walks along the sidewalk in Anzio viewing the Tyrrhenian sea and the many sun umbrellas staked into the sand. Families enjoy this beach due to the manmade water breaks that keep the waves to the seashore mild. Billy tells you of 2 encounters with the airline security who wanted to take our immersion water heater and eventually took our electrical tape. So that’s why we are replacing it now.

Billy takes you on a walk through the Sicily-Rome American Cemetery and Memorial in Nettuno, Italy. This Memorial commemorates those who fought and died to liberate Rome from fascism. WWII was waged on land, on sea and in the air for approximately 6 years. It was the largest and most violent armed conflict in the history of mankind.

Akaisha is on the beach this lovely morning in Anzio, Italy. Here you see some of the ruins of Roman Emperor Nero’s Villa as vacationers take a dip in the Tyrrhenian Sea. This is also the location of Anzio’s Landing in WWII, comparable to Normandy’s D-Day landing in France. The buildings on the coast were bombed out during the war, and had to be rebuilt. Take a look!

Billy is taking this video from out in the Tyrrhenian Sea, a part of the Mediterranean Sea on the southern coast of Italy. The town is Anzio, where Roman Emperor Nero had his villa and also where WWII’s Anzio Landing took place. You can see some ruins of Nero’s villa, but the town – which was bombed terribly in WWII – has been rebuilt. Blue skies, blue water, Anzio is a lovely town to visit.

This is a very romantic view of The Sassi at night. In the background you will hear live music from a local musician which simply enriches the experience. People have lived in The Sassi village since the Old Stone Age and there wasn’t running water or electricity for centuries. In the 1950s, residents of The Sassi were removed from their ancestral home by the Italian government and the town was renovated. Now, there is running water, electric lights, restaurants and hotels. Enjoy this whimsical view of an ancient town from high on a bluff.

We are on the other side of the Sassi looking back at Modern Matera, Italy. You can see the stone cave dwellings where people have lived here continuously for 9,000 years… since 7,000BC! Hear church bells peal out over the Gravina River Gorge and have a wonder-filled view of this ancient village.
