When in Rome....



Ciao!!!!

So our last day in Rome, and we really wish we weren't leaving Italy!! Yesterday we spent the day at the Vatican and saw some really cool stuff and visited St.Peters Basilica and San Pietro. We had a good lunch of pizza and anti pasto and headed off to another museum....well graveyard slash creepy place haha. I cant remember the name right now, but basically while digging up a church to build more they found 4000 bodies of monks and other royalty. ...but thats not it...they then took all the bones and made huge sculptures and designs out of them...sick. needless to say i was happy to walk out of there with all my bones intact! We came home for a short siesta and got ready for a night out in Rome...armed with Italian wine we had a good night in the city.

Today we visited the Colosseum and Palintine Hill. The Colosseum was by far our favorite part! It was huge and super cool to see that piece of Rome. Tonight we head to the Jewish Ghetto for dinner (don't worry it isn't the realll ghetto :) mmm cant wait!

Tomorrow we travel to Belgium....we are all a little sad to leave Italy though!

Glad to hear that everyone is ok from the quake! And p.s. UK hope you are feeling better, and that your surgery doesn't get in the way of your leopard swimsuit!

CIAO!!!!

Hey Girls,

Back home, feeling much better. I had asked the doctor to give me a bikini cut so I can still traipse around in the leaopard-clad speedos.

Love ya,
