Catacombs & Colosseums
... exception. Thankfully, we had our passes with us, so we pretty much got to jump the queue and were inside within 10 minutes of lining up.
This place is huge. As we were walking up the giant internal staircase, the first thing I should have thought of were the 1000's of Romans that used to use these exact stairs 100's of years ago. But nope, my first thought was "wow, this was where Bruce Lee fought Chuch Norris in the final scene of Fists of Fury". At least I think that ...
Day 2 - Rome
... Wendy, Ted and Jenny got to attend a mass in St Peters. We wondered around taking in the beautiful cathedral, the Pieta and art. Dad commented that he didn't expect it to be so beautiful.

Ciao Roma
It's my last night in Rome and with Rosa :( The past 2 weeks have been wonderful!! Let's see - over the weekend we went to the beach, but the weather wasn't so great so it really just turned into a day trip to get some great pizza (totally worth it of course). We went out to eat with some of Marco's friends over the weekend, grabbed some drinks, walked around during the days in ...
