Terracina to Rome
... or you get yelled at. We learned that one by example. An hour later, we headed out to see the sights of Rome. And sights there were! First we fueled up at a good vegetarian restaurant. Ann
ate twice as much as John (who's surprised?). We mentioned in a prior blog about seeing a wall and/or aqueduct. That wall continued throughout our walk around Rome. Don't know much about it, but the magnitude of it is awesome. Each street we walked down offered glimpses ...
Rzym nas wita
bardzo dużymi korkami. Sam przelot bardzo spokojny. Transfer z lotniska nie bez przygód - autobus Terranova który ma nas zawieźć do centrum ma kilkunastominutowe opóźnienie. Czytając jednak o specyfice Włoch byliśmy już psychicznie na to przygotowani :)

BEAUTIFUL ONE DAY! PERFECT THE NEXT
Hard to find time to write. Each day we wake around seven, Shane and I go for a coffee and stroll, then back to wake the girls, and head out for the day. We walk for at least 10 hours each day. We return each night around 9 - 9.30, sort Lucy and Katy, and drop into bed, leg weary, but looking forward to the next days adventure. Each day the weather is beautiful, I start with my coat on, then its t-shirts and by the time we go out for dinner 7ish the coat is back on, ...
