Visitors wait in front of one of Pompeii gates, Italy, Monday, June 23, 2014. A labor dispute kept tourists locked out of Pompeii for part of Monday, the latest in a spate of hours-long closures at the ancient Roman ruins. The gates were unlocked a couple of hours late, frustrating tourists wanting to enter the sprawling ruins in early morning. The dispute over work schedules and back pay began last week, keeping thousands of visitors shut out for hours at a time during union meetings. The government office that runs Pompeii said that three assemblies planned later this week were canceled, meaning visitors could expect regular opening hours. (AP Photo/Salvatore Laporta)
