DAY 2 3/8/05We left Florence after breakfast & drove to Rome on the A1 which was the original road north from Rome. As we drove we encountered a typical Italian summer mega storm complete with huge lightning bolts, massive thunder claps & torrential rain. Like lots of others we sheltered under an …
Catacombs & Colosseums
... biking and walking along. Bought our tickets for the 11:30am tour and waited with the crowd. The catacombs close between 12:00pm and 2:30pm, so make sure that you don't show up over lunch time expecting a tour. Once 11:3am rolled around they split us into groups depending on what language you spoke. English, unfortunately, was what the majority spoke. We made our way underground and instantly come across tombs. Here are the basic facts. The catacombs were started in early BC, ...
Last full day in Rome
... fountain which was deserted and I felt very lucky to see it like that. I did throw in a coin so I will be back for a 5th visit to this lovely city.
We enjoyed our stay at Yes Hotel as it is convenient to the station and central to get around Rome. After being in France last year Rome looks like a big dirty city but it still holds it's charms. Paris just feels and looks cleaner. Tuscany tomorrow. Thank you again Rome for a great visit.

Day 21 - First full day in Rome...Vatican and more
... those gladiator guys charge. He was energetic and the best person I've seen in Rome by far to this point...we gave him his 5 Euro tip, not for the picture but for the enjoyable experience he gave us.

We walked back to the Pantheon because we had noticed that taxis line up there, and we took a ...
No wifi connection, late updates in Rome
... tells. The Pantheon was just around the corner, and looked nothing like the one in Paris. This one, the original, which is close to 2000 years old, has seen better days. I guess thats to be expected when it has constantly been in use in some capacity or another since it was created in 118 AD. Two of Italy's first kings are buried here, as is Raphael. The dome has a hole in the middle of it, the oculus, which supports the weight of the ...

TravelPod Member ReviewsPincio Rome
The hotel is just outside the Spanish steps and a nice walk into the main Rome sights. The hotel was very reasonably priced for the facilities. The rooms were very spacious and clean. Breakfast on the roof garden was generous. The old feel (decoration, wonderful authentic lift, etc) was really well done. Friendly staff.
