Roma...Day 3



We have enjoyed Rome so much. It is such a beautiful city. We walked down to the Roman Forum. It is the ruins of ancient Rome. It was sooo amazing. The sun was shinning and the breeze was blowing and the ruins just came alive. It was breathtaking.

We also went inside the Colosseum....simply wonderful. We had lunch in the piazza Novana and went strolling at the Spanish steps with a late dinner. We sat in front of St. Peter's Basillica at night to see it all lit up. We are off to bed. We are rising early to go to the top of the Chapel and then we are off to Assisi by train. Pretty sure no internet there....we will try. Love to you all...

Ash has taken over 500 pics adn we are only half way through. The last statement was a little misleading because not a single one was from the forum..... just joshing we took several of the forum and colosseo. I have about 3 hours worth of film to go along with the pics so i got you covered.

we miss all three of you and will see you in a couple of weeks.
