Rome Italy! 10 days left















Well, our Rome experience has been an interesting one...especially starting out. Immediately after we got off of our four hour train ride from Venice, we were grabbed by hotel reservation man, which we thought was good since we did not have a place to stay. However this was one of our first mistakes on the trip. He set things up so fast we did not see it coming! Our hotel is in a good location and is cheap, but lets just say our mold in our bathroom is not pleasant to shower in. No need to say anything more. We are excited to get to the cinque terre tomorrow and stay in a nice peaceful, CLEAN, hotel run by a nice italian man. Not to make Rome sound bad, we have seen some pretty amazing ancient ruins of Rome and the history here in the city is so amazing. The colleseum is what we expected, and was very cool. Today we went to the Vatican, the Basilica, Sistene Chapel, and many other sites. Yes we were tourists on a double decker bus again, jumping off and then back on again, but it is the best way to see the city in a day. Weather is great here, we hope all is well at home, Much love!

  1. Have you pinched yourself? Do you realize where you are, and what your experiencing? Is it real?
