Water is running from the mouths of 4 lions into the 8 cisterns at the base.

Your photos are just as I've always imagined it to be, especially the two different colors of the sea.<br /><br />Don't fret about the weight, it happens to the best of us. I always gain weight when I go out of town. You just have to sample the local delicacies and they sounded delicious.
