Qiz - 27 April 2011

[calismum]

According to legend, the city of Rome was founded in 753 BC on the banks of the Tiber about 25 kilometres (16 mi) from the sea at Ostia. The island Isola Tiberina in the center of Rome, between Trastevere and the ancient center, was the site of an important ancient ford and was later bridged. Legend says Rome's founders, the twin brothers Romulus and Remus, were abandoned on its waters, where they were rescued by a she-wolf.

Pip is in his Pip-nest; not sure where Kizzy is, but she was around a while ago. She's probably looking to see if Izzy and Breagh have sent anything south for her .....
