Hello from Rome, one and all,
Last day in Rome, and yes it’s cold and wet. BUT WE DON’T CARE!!!! Last day in Europe for we have a 9:45 flight tomorrow and although it’s been an incredible journey, we are ready to return to English, Dollars, Toilets with lids, our own vehicles, our own beds, and most of all, FAMILY AND FRIENDS THAT WE LOVE AND MISS!
Day 2 in Rome has been another incredible day. Once we got really deep into the city and places we’ve all heard of most of our lives we just got lost in history.
Short line at the Vatican so we hit it early. Oh what beauty we saw, and the history of Christianity was absolutely overwhelming. You just have to experience it. 2 – 3 hours of nothing but looking, taking photos, and living in the past. Go when you can.
Then it was off to the Trevi fountain. As you can see, it is beautiful and many people think the same. Sculpture, water, people, and peace all rolled into one.
Down the street to the Spanish Steps and again, lots of folks because of the peace and beauty. Just to stand there on the steps and listen, watch, and enjoy.
Next we went to St. Peters Basilica and it is nearly overwhelming. The paintings, the sculptures, the trim, the former Pope’s, the marble artwork, and I could go on and on, but I won’t. Go yourself or chat with someone that’s been there. You will love it.
Then there is the photo of our “last supper”. Spaghetti, bread, pork, and wine and we wind up the vacation to be talked about for years. Thank you Lord.
We leave EARLY, so I suppose it’s time for me to say so long and I’ll give a final this weekend. Thank you for being with me. It helped to have someone there all the time. I do hope you have enjoyed.
Love and happiness coming your way.
