Sat we went into Rome. We took 2 subway to get there. We decide to book a tour and we were glad we did. One thing the tour does is saves you from standing in line and the other it would be hard to find your way around. Our tour guide was an American who went to college in Italy, after she finished and went home, she decided to come to Italy and live, She was very good and we had a small crowd of 9 people. After the tour we got her number to call if we want personel tours.
The Vatican was awesome. We saw the Sisine Chapel and the museum, I like St Peter's church the best. This place was really big. It took about 3 hours of walking and up and down stairs. My legs hurt! I will post some pictures on facebook.
We we got out it was about 5:30, so we were then trying to figure out how to get back to the subway. We were let out a different exit than we went in. Downtown was alive, lots of people on street. Lots of shops. We stopped at a cafe to get something to eat and then asking the whole way to different people, where is the Metro! We found it and arrived at home.
Looking forwar to next weekend to see something else.
This is so cool, Shirley! I hope you are enjoying it and not having too much homesickness. Please keep up the photos and blogging...it is so much fun to learn about it all from you!
