Rome

Rome was suave :)

From the grand Colosseum to the majestic forum, Roma was a great place to be. Wow. That sounded like Rick Steves :D Could you tell I've gotten into a thesaurus? :P First day was our beautiful walk around Rome. 2nd day, we were well rested and ready to go. Did you know that there is a breathtaking view from the top of the Colosseum? There is. Not only is the view great, there are stories!! It's so fascinating to think about all the things that happened millennia ago.

Our B&B owner's daughter has the same birthday as me! She turned 23 when I turned 14! How cool is that? Another fun thing is that there is a Moleskine shop in the Roma train station. Walking the forum, climbing Palentine hill, and just enjoying Rome was a great experience.

The gelato shop Giolitto's in Rome, is absolutely the best, most amazing gelato ANYWHERE if you go to Rome, got to Giolitto's. My mom had caramel and chocolate, daddy had amaretto and bailey's (genuine bailey's none the less) and I had... wait for it... mango with cocoletta (that's watermelon with chocolate chips) Yummy!!

More pics later. (Blogger is having some technical difficulties)
