Well here we are in Manic Rome. Cars, scooters and run for your life if you try to cross the street. We had still a great few days in New York and the whole family now loves that city. We are certainly will go back there.

Rome is a totally different sort of experience. Don't get me wrong. We love it, but the noise is unbelievable. The sights are fantastic. In one day we saw the Colloseum, Forum, Vatican City and the Sistine Chapel. The latter was too beautiful to describe. Michelangelo has a new fan. Going through the Vatican Museum to get to the chapel was like living in a painting. Rafael did some amazing ceilings and every time we turned a corner we where surpirised by even more masterpieces. One starts to wonder what the rest of Vatican would look like. Well; that's not for us mere mortal;s to found out.

We have to leave, Nice is on the agenda next.
