Musei Vaticani

Our first day in Rome and we're all excited to see the Vatican!! After our first Roman breakfast which looked more like American, lolz. We decided to take the City sightseeing Roma on a Hop on-Hop Off red bus. The metro was on strike and it turned out fine since the bus had a 2 day special, lolz. On the way to the Vatican, we passed by the Colosseum and I wanted somebody to pinch me. I couldn't believe that I was here seeing the Colosseum where all the gladiators were. Not that they were happ...

My Colosseum Tour

After passing by the Coloseum on the way to the Vatican city yesterday, we all agreed that we needed to see this great piece of history the very next day. So we hopped on the red bus again and almost ran to the gates. 11euros to get in on a guided tour. It was well worth it! Where do I start? This was the place where the Roman emperors put on "the games". where people could watch the gladiators fight. Not exactly my cup of tea but here I was, walking the same grounds. It was sad to think of t...

Back to the Vatican & La Fontana di Trevi

Two days ago when we went to the Vatican city, the whole day was taken up by just the Vatican Museum alone. We never made it to the Basilica itself so here we are coming back for the Basilica alone. It was amazing - the largest Catholic church ever built! No shorts, sleeveless t's or revealing clothing was not permitted to enter. So dress proper like going to a church, the Vatican church, really!

Luglio ti Roma

All the way from San Francisco, my 16 year old son & I finally reached Fiumicino Airport the following day July 06, 08. We took the Leonard express train 11euros each. It was a nice ride except for the part where you have to lift your heavy luggages up the steps. Our stop was the termini. It was a busy terminal if you ask me but then again, I've never been to a big train station in the States like NY. The hotel was a few blocks away and it was still too early to check in but I was glad that w...

Venice to Rome

... caught my train. I got a window
seat and was able to view Italy's great landscape. The trains in Italy
all require reservations which cost 10 euro however they are much more
roomy and comfortable. They also had a power plug so I could charge my
ipod. The train stopped at Bologna, Florence and then Rome. I got in
around 4pm and headed straight for the hostel. The hostel was only a

Ciao, Roma

... like to follow the rules.

The Colosseum is ridiculous. So much to see and it's still so much intact that you can imagine the gladiators and patrons enjoying their entertainment. We learned that the Colosseum was used for several purposes throughout history...martyrs were killed on the center floor in front of the public - ripped in half by animals, gladiators hunted exotic animals then fed criminals to the animals who weren't killed, and intermissions featured jesters who ...

... are tucked into almost every corner. (Any corner not occupied by history has been snatched by the luxury stores of Armani, Ferragamo, Gucci, or any number of other Italian designers). Rome shares cobbled narrow streets with Florence and many other European cities. Unlike Florence and Sevilla, which are cities in which every destination seems to be reachable if one is wanders in the general direction, it is impossible to wander anywhere in Rome. It is so ...

Bella Roma

Hello! We are blogging from a lovely outdoor cafe in Roma in the early evening of our second day here. Our first day was a whirlwind of plane delays, jet lag, sightseeing, and several failed attempts at finding a working espresso machine in a cafe! Even given that, we had a glorious first day of seeing the sights, walking endlessly around Roma, and deciding where to eat. Today, Wednesday, we hiked to the top of Piazza Garibaldi for great vies of Rome, and to surprise Claudia by ...

Pompeii and home

... train and train to get back to Naples to catch the flight to Berlin, but I got to go back to Rome for a night! Lucky me! I was fortunate enough to sit next to Dr. Aiken, a Professor of Archeology in Amsterdam, who was taking a break from excavating in Pompeii to visit a friend outside of Naples. I bombarded him with questions and he gave me the low-down on the geologic makeup of the land from Pompeii to Naples. He also ...

An evening meal and glass of wine harborside or up on a hill overlooking town...a starry night with waves gently lapping on shore...and...pretty much a perfect day in Italy! Two days and nights in Cinque Terre was followed by a lazy morning and a midday hop aboard train ...
