Ancient Rome's Versatile Aqueduct System

With the romans usually
travel galloping to their destination,
they one day thought of
a better way to travel invention,
instead of the old way
which was usually by horse,
they decided it would be wiser
and quicker to take the aqueduct course,
that way the travelers would
kill two birds with one stone,
they'd not only enjoy the scenery,
but could bathe on their way down,
sitting on their butts,
with a bar of soap,
they'd quickly lather up,
while hitting a small bump,
but they didn't mind,
they thought that part was fun,
hence came the idea,
of the first water park slide!
