Hi guys, Rome was beautiful & hot 35degrees! I went to explore the Ancient city of Rome, the Coloseum was amazing...the Palatine hill which calim to have had the 1st botanical gardens & zooalogical gardens in the world! & the Roman Forum which was also very impressive, i so love all the history & old building. I went to see Augusta's house which dates back to the 1st century & also saw Julias Ceasers grave!

I went to Vatican City & the Vatican museum & Sistine Chapel, my jaw was always wide open...wowwwwww. Even more impressive was Basilica Di San Pietro (st Peter's church) where i almost wanted to pray, you have to see these paintings & art sculptures to truly beleive such beauty exists. The church leads out into a huge circle area where the pope comes out onto the balcony to do his speaches & there are statues of all the popes around the walls. I spent the next few days roaming around Rome, there is so much to see & do here!

Well bye for now next stop Paris.
