What is that?? Are they cutting marble? My best guess.

Sorry but, I wouldn't step foot in that bathroom with snake, and I don't think anyone I know would (all cowards). One way to keep the bathroom as fresh and clean as when it was created.

Yes, that's a quarry in Carrara, Italy. Its the Fantiscritti quarry. Once they cut the blocks in 20 ton chunks, they load them on trucks and drive down this road. There are sections of quarry road that aren't large enough for the trucks to turn the corners, so they go forward down one straight section, then back downhill on the next, then forward downhill the next, and so forth. Over the last few decades many of the drivers have gotten into doing yoga, it helps them drive this road better.

Negotiating a corner...note the turn of the front wheel.

"Heart in the mouth," style of driving. Tums will never help that

Keep in mind the roads are covered with marble dust, so when it rains it can get somewhat slippery......

Surely they don't drive on rainy days.
