Rome, Italy

Rome. This is Santa Maria del Popolo Square.


Come on! (outside the collisium, duh)

Inside.

St. Peters Square.


Trevi fountain.

Whoa, Rome was BIG. It was a lot to take in too, especially after the tranquilty of Positano. We adjusted but it took a few days. It was amazing seeing things that we had only heard of for most of our lives. The center of the Roman Empire! Endless monuments, fountains, oblisks (all stolen from Egypt) and crumbling remains of the might that was. It was overwelming at times to be somewhere where everytime you turned around you were faced with yet another treasure, be it ancient or modern.
